HSBC Private Bank appointed four senior executives to strengthen the key areas of family advisory services and philanthropy within the Private Wealth Solutions business in Asia Pacific.
As part of its push to grow its private banking business in the Asia Pacific, HSBC announced four senior hires on Monday. Aik-Ping Ng joins as Co-Head of Family Office Advisory and Senior Family Governance Advisor, Asia Pacific while Edith Ang will be Co-Head of Family Office Advisory and Senior Family Governance Advisor, Asia Pacific, the bank said in a media statement on Monday.
Both of them will work with client families to develop long-term succession plans, which includes providing the highest standard of advisory on establishing and professionalizing family offices, trusts and estate planning, family governance and preparing for the transition of responsibility to the next generation.
Aik-Ping Ng has over 17 years of international and China-based experience in private equity, corporate finance, strategic M&A, family office advisory and asset management to HSBC. Most recently, Ng was a Senior Advisor at UBS, working with Ultra High Net Worth (UHNW) clients in the formulation, review, and implementation of family office solutions.
Edith Ang joins HSBC after 13 years at UBS, where she worked with UHNW families in Asia on the formulation, review, and implementation of family legacy solutions.
In addition, Dorothy Chan has been appointed to be Head of Philanthropy Advisory and Charitable Services, Asia Pacific, while Christine Wong will take up the role of Head of Greater China Market, Private Wealth Solutions. Dorothy Chan succeeds Cynthia D’Anjou-Brown, the previous head, as the latter will retire from HSBC in December this year after almost 15 years of service.
As a leading private and institutional client trustee platform, we are dedicated to building lasting relationships with HNW and UHNW families to identify the solutions to support them across the generations, said Cynthia Lee, Regional Head of Private Wealth Solutions, the Asia Pacific in a media statement.
Dorothy Chan joins HSBC after 19 years of experience in a variety of senior roles in the private, public and not-for-profit sectors. She previously worked at Galaxy Entertainment as Vice President, Corporate Relations. Chan has deep experience working with a number of leaders to define a vision and create solutions that contribute to the sustainable development of a range of diverse communities.
Working closely with HSBC’s teams in EMEA and the Americas, Chan will help drive coordinated philanthropy efforts including building charities and connecting. She will also lead the team supporting clients in the development of their charitable goals.
Christine Wong joins HSBC from Credit Suisse, where she was Director of Trust and Estate Advisory Team for the Greater China Market. Prior to joining HSBC, she gained 25 years of experience in cross-border trusts in senior wealth planner roles at Credit Suisse, Edmond de Rothschild, UBS, and J.P. Morgan.
She also has served as Managing Director of the Asiaciti Trust group’s Hong Kong office with responsibility for the fiduciary management and trust operations of the business. In her new role, Christine Wong will be integral to the further development of HSBC’s Private Wealth Solutions business in Greater China.
