ABN Amro Private Banking has named David Chan as head of investment advisory for its Singapore office.

Chan brings over 20 years of experience in international banks, having worked at the likes of Barclays and Citibank in various capacities. Before joining ABN Amro, he led a team of investment advisors specialising in client investment portfolios and asset allocation at Standard Chartered Bank.

In his new role, he will report to Change Tze Lee, the head of private banking for Southeast Asia, and Angel Wu, the regional head of products and solutions for Asia.

The appointment follows the hiring of former Fortis Private Bank executive Jimmy Kee as market manager for Singapore and Malaysia in early August.
