In Singapore, judicial managers ("JMs") appointed over a company are empowered to conduct a range of acts relating to the company's business. However, JMs face removal if they fail to adhere to the legislative framework on judicial management.

How to bring a dissolved company back to life through administrative or court restoration.
When a company is dissolved or struck off the Register of Companies it ceases to exist. Property belonging to the dissolved company vests in the Crown to be disposed of. However, that is not always the end of the matter and in certain circumstances it is possible to restore a company to the Register.
