Hong Kong — The Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX) has announced Adeline Ee as its new managing director, and head of sales and marketing for ASEAN. Ee will report to Christina Bao and Kevin Rideout, HKEX’s co-heads of sales and marketing.
Based in Singapore, Ee will head up HKEX’s Singapore office and will be responsible for leading the expansion of HKEX’s business across Southeast Asia, adding new clients and flows whilst further elevating the Group’s profile across the region.
