About

I have spent my career helping leading asset management and banking institutions strike the right balance between pursuing opportunities and managing counterparty credit risk. With over 15 years of experience in credit approvals and risk management, I have covered financial institutions in Asia-Pacific, Europe and North America. Along the way, I have built credit frameworks from the ground up, approved complex public and private market transactions, and partnered with front-office teams to structure deals that make sense for both business and risk. I am recognised for clear judgment, strong governance and people management.
