Kevin Lam (On Linkedin, 1/7/23) – Today at the start of our new financial year 23/24, I am honoured and excited to be taking over as the Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Hong Leong Bank Berhad
With the strong legacy left by my predecessor Domenic Fuda who has taken the bank from strength to strength in the past 7.5 years, I would like to pay tribute to his work which is evidenced by our results and performance, especially in leading us to emerge from the pandemic stronger and more resilient.
It is now a challenge that I relish, to build on that legacy and take HLB to the next level.
We will build a strong ASEAN franchise driven by new engines of growth. Wealth Management will be one of our top priorities, as will our continued and deepened commitment to the SME community, amongst other transformative programs that we will soon undertake.
Our people and our customers will remain the central focus of all our strategies, programs and initiatives. We will double down on our brand promise of “Built Around You”, which puts our customers and the communities we serve at the centre of everything that we do, and guides our actions and commitments to them.
With the strong support from our experienced management team and the stewardship of our Chairman and Board of Directors, I believe HLB is well positioned for strong sustainable growth domestically and regionally.
Our valued colleagues, customers, partners, and stakeholders – thank you for your continued trust and support. I am eager to meet up with all of you as we embark on this journey to transform challenges into opportunities and shape a future where banking seamlessly integrates into our customers’ lives.
