The new institutional business head has worked at firms including Mercer and Cambridge Associates, and the Monetary Authority of Singapore.

Schroders has appointed Chee Long Chong (main picture) as head of institutional business, Southeast Asia, effective 19 January 2026. 

Based in Singapore, he will be responsible for leading Schroders’ institutional client strategy and relationships across the region. Chee Loong Chong brings nearly 30 years of experience in financial services, spanning investment management, advisory and financial supervision.

Prior to this, he worked at Mercer Investment Solutions Singapore, where he was CEO, overseeing the firm’s wealth business in Singapore and its investment operations across Southeast Asia. Earlier in his career, Chee Long Chong served in senior roles at Cambridge Associates, Pacific Asset Management and the Monetary Authority of Singapore, Schroders said in a statement. 

The UK-listed firm said that Roger Lau, head of pensions and retirement, Hong Kong, who has been with the firm for more than 10 years, has decided to leave Schroders to pursue a new opportunity.
