由来
  • 银会会员少则十人左右，多则 30 人以上。
  • 银会一般有一位领头，每位领头底下有数名会员，并且需要规定好每个月会员所要缴交的数额。领头将从中抽取一份，但会员若要领取银会的钱，就必须投标，由价高者获得。然而，投到标的会员在往后几个月就不能再投标，而且还需继续缴付每个月的贡献。
  • 1952 年至 1959 年之间，新加坡和马来西亚两国频繁出现银会诈欺案件。
  • 银会在新加坡为非法组织。
ETYMOLOGY
  • The members of a tontine can number as few as about ten or as many as above 30.
  • Each tontine usually has a leader, who has several members under them and will need to stipulate the amount to be paid by the members every month. The leader will draw a share from the amount, but if members wish to collect the money from the tontine, they will have to place a bid, with the highest bidder getting the money. However, while successful bidders will not be allowed to bid again for the next few months, they must continue making monthly contributions.
  • Between 1952 and 1959, cases of tontine fraud occurred frequently in Singapore and Malaysia.
  • In Singapore, tontines are illegal.
