Hong Kong’s FinEX Asia, a financial technology asset management platform provider, has promoted Robert Cheung from chief operating officer to chief executive officer.
He takes over from Maggie Ng, the company’s co-founder, who becomes chief risk officer, FinEX Asia says in a statement on April 2, when the appointments became effective.
The company also named Angie Lin, who was previously its president, as chief investment officer.
“Mr. Cheung’s previous international experience with top institutions will be instrumental to delivering FinEX Asia’s global ambitions and makes him a strong fit to drive the firm through its next stage of development,” the company says.
FinEX Asia has several upcoming product releases which, according to the company, will reshape its position as a burgeoning industry player.
“Robert’s expertise will be invaluable to us as CEO during our next phase of global expansion,” Ms. Ng says in the statement.
“I’m excited to have this opportunity to continue driving FinEX Asia’s success and operate at the pinnacle of finance and innovation,” Mr. Cheung adds.
Mr. Cheung, who has over 15 years of financial industry experience, joined FinEX Asia in 2017. He was previously a partner in Hong Kong-based asset manager Redwood Peak.
FinEX Asia has accumulated over US$200 million of assets under management since its inception in August 2017.
