Guan was quoted as saying: “Through her extensive career, Vivienne has gained a unique perspective in developing investment solutions across both investment banking and wealth management platforms to meet the needs and objectives of a full spectrum of clients.

“She also brings with her an astute sense of judgment in overcoming cultural, regulatory and risk challenges to facilitate favourable business outcomes.”

Chia succeeds Fidelis Oruche, who was global head of investment advisory solutions at the bank since 2013.

The bank has appointed Oruche to the newly created role of head of alternative investments and managed solutions.
