In the new role, he will directly report to regional CEO Asean and South Asia Judy Hsu.

Lee most recently served as the firm’s head of global banking in Singapore, a position he will continue to hold until a successor is announced by the company. He joined Standard Chartered in 2012.

His corporate and investment banking career of more than 25 years includes experience of working in London, Hong Kong and Singapore.

“The Bank’s franchise in Singapore, similar to Singapore’s role as a financial centre, is on its next phase of development to maintain its dynamism and cutting edge,” the bank said in a statement.
