Bank of Singapore Expands Team with Key Hires in Hong Kong

The Bank of Singapore has taken strategic steps to enhance its presence in the Greater China region. On Tuesday, it announced the hiring of Che Yan and Hank Chen as senior relationship managers for its Hong Kong branch. This move is part of the private banking arm of Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp's efforts to expand its coverage in the area.

The new appointments are a response to last year's substantial 30% increase in relationship managers at the same branch. Furthermore, the bank has already surpassed its ambitious 50% assets under management growth target for the 2024–2026 period, more than a year ahead of schedule.

Che Yan brings two decades of cross-border finance experience from China Minsheng Bank, while Hank Chen joins from J.P. Morgan, boasting nearly 25 years of expertise in advising high-net-worth and institutional clients. Their combined experience is expected to significantly contribute to the Bank of Singapore's goals in the region.
