One of the most senior figures at the banking group is stepping down.

Vivian Chan is retiring at the end of June from her role as global vice chairman, private banking at Standard Chartered. She has been at the bank for more than nine years.

Chan, who joined the UK-listed banking group as region head, private banking for Greater China and North Asia in January 2017, was promoted to her current role in October 2022.

“Vivian is an industry legend who holds a distinguished reputation with clients, building deep and enduring relationships that span multiple generations. She is a trusted advisor who approaches clients with passion, professionalism and always anticipating and meeting their needs,” Raymond Ang, global head, private bank and affluent clients, and head, wealth and retail banking for Greater China and North Asia, said. 

“Through her pursuit of excellence and uncompromising dedication to clients, she has been a pillar of strength to Standard Chartered Global Private Bank. I want to extend my gratitude to Vivan for her partnership and friendship and wish her all the very best as she begins a new chapter in her life,” Ang said. 

The bank said in a statement that Chan has been instrumental in advancing Standard Chartered’s global private banking franchise and a major driver of its UHNW growth strategy.
