Earlier in November, Mr Wang was also appointed OCBC’s head of Greater China.

Consolidating these leadership roles – namely the positions of OCBC Hong Kong’s CEO as well as the group’s head of Greater China – streamlines the bank’s drive to solidify its collective strengths in the region, the group said on Nov 29. It would also enable OCBC to capture trade, investment and wealth flows between Greater China and Asean.

OCBC group CEO Helen Wong said Mr Wang holding both positions would “achieve greater synergy and alignment” for the group’s refreshed corporate strategy.
