She headed HSBC's global banking in Singapore and also its corporates, financials, and multinational banking for South-east Asia. 

With her in-depth knowledge of the client segment and solid track record in driving team performance, I am confident that Wan Thonh will lead our team in Singapore to deliver strong results and build sustainable value for our clients"

In the statement,  Lee said, "Singapore is a core market for the bank. The country's value proposition as an international financial centre and a gateway to Asia continues to attract regional and global companies to the city-state, using it as a base for regional expansion. Singapore corporates and institutions are also accelerating their outward investments in the region and further afield.

"With her in-depth knowledge of the client segment and solid track record in driving team performance, I am confident that Wan Thonh will lead our team in Singapore to deliver strong results and build sustainable value for our clients."

Chow, a Singaporean, holds a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration from the National University of Singapore. She has over 25 years of experience in developing and executing business across transaction banking, capital markets and strategic advisory for corporate and institutional clients, said Standard Chartered.
