Heng has served in senior roles at UBS Wealth Management and Credit Suisse Private Bank. Before this, he was principal and head of Southeast Asia private financing at Apollo Management.

In recent news about the bank, in early January it trumpeted a sharp rise in discretionary portfolio management AuM during 2025, saying that regulatory reforms have also put a booster into the Asian city-state’s stock market.

Later in January, Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation (OCBC), Bank of Singapore’s parent, said it became the first Singaporean bank to create a dedicated securities financing unit for institutional clients. The development affects Bank of Singapore, along with other parts of the OCBC group. Clients can earn a fee because the new unit can lend out their idle securities.
