First Sentier Investors bolsters leadership in Asia to spearhead business growth

Asia, 13 June 2024: First Sentier Investors, a leading global investment manager, announced the appointment of Christy Goh as the Head of Intermediary Business, Asia, and CEO, Singapore, and named Marcus Ong as the Head of Institutional Business, Asia.

Based in Singapore, Ms Goh will oversee the intermediary business and lead the team in Asia, covering the business and strategy development in both North and Southeast Asia. She was most recently the Head of Distribution, South East Asia. She joined First Sentier Investors in 2006, with more than two decades of experience in the financial industry.

Mr Ong will be leading both North and Southeast Asia institutional sales activities. He joined First Sentier Investors as Director of Institutional Business in 2022, bringing in more than 10 years of experience in institutional client management and expertise to the business. He is also based in Singapore.

Both promotions broaden the leadership team and reflect the business development efforts and success with which First Sentier Investors has been building across Asia. The appointments are effective immediately.

Ms Goh and Mr Ong will report to Lauren Prendiville, Managing Director and Head of Distribution of APAC, whose role was expanded to include leadership of the business in Australia alongside Asia in 2023.

Ms Prendiville said, “We are thrilled to entrust Christy Goh and Marcus Ong with their expanded roles. With their proven track records and expertise in developing intermediary and institutional business respectively, we are confident they will spearhead the further growth and expansion of First Sentier Investors in Asia. We believe that these appointments will bring significant value through alignment and collaboration across the regions, ultimately resulting in better client experience.”
