Previously, Leong was working as ultra-high net worth market lead and desk head at HSBC Singapore. He has more than 15 years of experience in wealth management.
Separately, Deutsche Bank has also hired bankers Lynn Aw and Derek Teo, both of whom have been team members of Terence since he was with UOB Private Bank.
Chow said: “South East Asia is a growing region and the fundamentals underpinning wealth creation remain positive. We will continue to hire the best people in the industry to serve clients across the region, and to provide world class services to which the bank has committed.”
In April, the Deutsche Bank reported the best quarterly profit since 2014.
