Joey Tang will spearhead Bank of Singapore’s product and solutions strategy for the Hong Kong branch across areas such as capital markets, alternative investments and managed solutions, as well as lending advisory, according to a statement by the dedicated private banking subsidiary of OCBC.
He will also be responsible for driving the bank’s innovation of product capabilities in support of the clients in the Greater China region.
Based in Hong Kong, Tang (pictured) reports to Vivienne Chia, global head of investment solutions group and has a local reporting line to Rickie Chan, head of private banking, Greater China, and chief executive, Hong Kong branch.
Singapore-based Chia said, “We have seen an increase in demand for sophisticated product offerings and financial solutions among our clients. To serve this demand, we are dedicated to growing a strong team to provide personalised wealth management solutions to match our clients’ investment needs.”
Tang is an industry veteran with about 30 years of experience in investment banking and private banking. Before joining Bank of Singapore, he was the head of funds, alternatives, and solutions at Bank of China (Hong Kong) Private Banking.
Prior to that, Tang was the head of the Greater China region and the head of fixed income, commodities and currencies for Citigroup Global Markets where he led a multi-asset structured investment solutions team.
Tang’s appointment is the latest in a series of strategic hires to add to the bank’s advisory and product solutions bench strength globally. Bank of Singapore recently appointed six new hires at its Dubai International Financial Centre branch to enhance its advisory and product offerings across the Middle East and Gulf Cooperation Council markets.
