Bank of Singapore has announced the appointment of Vi Sun Yang as Head of Private Banking, ASEAN, effective 29 June 2026. Yang, an industry veteran with over 30 years of experience, will lead the strategic growth of the bank’s largest market, reporting to CEO Jason Moo. Her role aligns with OCBC’s corporate strategy, The Next Frontier, which focuses on capturing rising Asian wealth flows.
Yang’s extensive background includes leadership roles at Julius Baer and UBS Singapore, where she managed high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth teams across Southeast Asia. Her appointment is part of a series of strategic hires by Bank of Singapore, which recently surpassed its 2023 target of $145b in assets under management, growing its global AUM by over 20% in 2025.
Jason Moo expressed confidence in Yang’s ability to drive the bank’s growth in ASEAN, stating, “Our continued ability to attract top talent like her underscores the strong appeal of our franchise.” Yang’s appointment follows recent leadership additions, including Eng Chien Chan as Market Group Head for Greater China and Bernard Heng as Head of Customised Solutions.
Yang holds a Bachelor of Business Administration from the National University of Singapore and advanced degrees in wealth management and finance from the University of Rochester and the University of Bern, respectively. Her leadership is expected to further enhance Bank of Singapore’s capabilities in serving the wealth management needs of clients across the ASEAN region.
