UK-listed Standard Chartered, which earns the bulk of its revenues in regions such as Asia, has appointed Shebani Baweja (pictured) as group chief data officer (CDO) with immediate effect, based in Singapore. She will be reporting to Alvaro Garrido, chief operating officer for technology and operations (T&O) and chief information officer for information security and data.

As group CDO, Baweja will lead the Group Data Office and continue to shape the bank’s data strategy, setting the direction for the way data is governed, managed and used across the organisation. She will oversee its execution by building strong data foundations, embedding consistent practices, and accelerating the use of data and analytics to support growth, innovation and better decision-making.

“As a super-connector bank, Standard Chartered’s foundations in technology and data act as key enablers in providing world-class client services,” Garrido said. “As we continue to expand our use of data and AI to help clients seamlessly connect with growth opportunities across our unique network, Shebani’s leadership will be key in strengthening our data-driven culture that simplifies with discipline and keeps risk and integrity at the forefront.”
