The latest moves, appointments and personnel changes in the Asia-Pacific wealth management sector.
Bank of Singapore
This publication can confirm that the global head of investment
solutions for Bank of
Singapore, Vivienne Chia (main picture), has resigned
from the bank. BoS confirmed her departure to
WealthBriefingAsia.
Chia, who was at the Singapore-headquartered bank, part of OCBC, for four years, was previously at UBS for more than 20 years. She started her career at Citigroup.
In stories about other moves, in July, parent group OCBC said that Tan Teck Long had been named as its group CEO. He would be starting in January 2026, succeeding Helen Wong who is retiring at the end of the year.
In a separate story, Bank of Singapore said it aims to shake up the way family office services are delivered to ultra-high net worth clients who are not yet ready to create their own single-family office. The new solution, aimed at clients in Singapore, is called the Bank of Singapore Family Office Catalyst.
Standard Chartered
Standard
Chartered has appointed Roger Charles as head of
sustainability initiatives, coverage, in the corporate and
investment banking (CIB) team
Charles brings more than 25 years of experience in technical and senior sustainability roles across the oil and gas and financial services sectors. He is joining Standard Chartered from DBS Bank, where he was responsible for shaping sustainable and transition finance as well as its net zero vision across the region. Prior to DBS, he has worked for consulting firm DuPont Sustainable Solutions and independent energy company Tullow Oil.
While on the corporate and investment banking side, the kind of insights Charles and his colleagues come up with can feed across the firm, including wealth management.
Based in Singapore, Charles reports to Stella Choe, global head of corporate coverage.
UK-listed Standard Chartered is targeting at least $1 billion in annual sustainable finance income by 2025 and plans to mobilise $300 billion in green and transition finance by 2030.
