Fashion Valet trial: Investment funds cannot be used to pay dividends, court told

Fashion Valet founders Datin Vivy Sofinas Yusof and Datuk Fadzarudin Shah Anuar face charges of criminal breach of trust for allegedly misusing RM8 million in investment funds from Khazanah Nasional Berhad and Permodalan Nasional Berhad. Corporate lawyer Anne Wong Wai Yee testified that the shareholders' agreement did not allow the use of investment funds for dividend payments.

The agreement specified that the funds should be used for technology development, store expansion, and product acquisition. Wong added that Fashion Valet was prohibited from extending loans or credit to directors, shareholders, or related companies without board approval, and that any agreements with such parties requiring annual payments of RM50,000 or more also needed board approval.
