Bank of Singapore has bolstered its Family Office and Wealth Advisory team by appointing Elvin Ho as Head of Family Office and Structuring Solutions, effective 4 May 2026. This strategic move aims to address the growing complexities faced by ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) clients in succession, legacy, and wealth transfer planning. The bank has witnessed a record number of client engagements in 2025, with expectations for continued growth.
Elvin Ho brings extensive experience from his previous role at JPMorgan Private Bank, where he advised UHNW clients in Southeast Asia on taxation, estate, and succession planning. His 19-year tenure at UBS AG further solidified his expertise in wealth planning and investment consulting. In his new role, Ho will focus on developing family office offerings and wealth structures, particularly for UHNW clients.
The leadership expansion also sees Jiawen Guo taking on the role of Head of Family Office and Wealth Advisory, Singapore. Christine Wong continues to lead the Hong Kong team, whilst Yasmine Omari oversees the Dubai operations. Harry Ng has been appointed as Senior Wealth Adviser for Singapore and Malaysia, all reporting to Paul Chua, Head of Family Office and Wealth Advisory.
This enhancement aligns with OCBC Group’s Whole-of-Wealth strategy, integrating services across OCBC Bank and Great Eastern Holdings. Paul Chua expressed confidence in the strengthened team, stating, “We continue to leverage on our differentiated wealth advisory approach to help clients address their most important objective and purpose – to grow and preserve their wealth for the next generation.”
