Earlier this month, digital media giant Vice Media, once valued at nearly US$6 billion, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. 

Vice was one of seven large companies that filed for Chapter 11 in less than 48 hours, the largest number on record during a two-day period since 2008.

So is the problem simply just down to aggressive debt accumulation during the low-interest-rate era, or is it more layered?

On Money in the Market, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Finbarr Flynn, Editor Asia Credit at Bloomberg News, to find out more.

Money in the Market: What's triggering the latest wave of Chapter 11 bankruptcy filings?

This morning on Money FM 89.3, Neil Humphries and Audrey Siek unpacked a familiar parenting dilemma: should you monitor your child’s phone?

But that’s only part of the story, because beyond parental control lies a more complex reality which is that your child’s device is already being monitored.

From the moment they get their first smartphone, AI systems are at work where one designed to detect harm and comply with regulations, and another built to keep them engaged for as long as possible.

On AI & Me, Lynlee Foo explores this deeper tension: when does protection become surveillance and who is really in control?

A Singapore animated film just made it into the main competition at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival for the first time in the festival's 65-year history.

It's a historic moment. But it also raises a harder question: if this is what it takes to make one film, can Singapore actually build a sustainable animation industry? Or is this a one-off?

On Industry Insight, Lynlee Foo speaks to Justin Deimen, Executive Producer of The Violinist and Executive Director, at Singapore’s Intercultural Theatre Institute, about what it took to bring the film to this level, the challenges facing local animators, and whether this moment can translate into long-term growth for Singapore’s animation scene.
