5th June 2024 – Bank of Singapore with $110 billion AUM (Assets under Management) has hired Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC Dr Owi S. Ruivivar as Chief Portfolio Strategist.  Dr Owi S. Ruivivar has more than 30 years of experience including at Singapore GIC, International Monetary Fund (IMF), and 17 years at Goldman Sachs Asset Management (including founding portfolio manager of Lipper-awarded Emerging Market debt franchise with $60 billion in assets).   Bank of Singapore (3/6/24): “Bank of Singapore today announced the appointment of a Chief Portfolio Strategist, to solidify the Bank’s strategic focus on cross-asset research, asset allocation and portfolio management. This newly created role will lead the charge in developing a systematic, robust and risk-based multi-asset allocation framework that will guide clients as they build long-term investment portfolios. Dr Owi S. Ruivivar, a seasoned investment manager with over 30 years of experience in economics, investment strategy and portfolio management, has assumed the Chief Portfolio Strategist role today. Based in Singapore, Dr Ruivivar will be a member of the Bank’s investment committee that decides on the strategic and tactical asset allocation calls for clients. She reports to Bank of Singapore’s Global Chief Investment Officer Jean Chia.  With quality investment and portfolio advisory at the forefront of Bank of Singapore’s corporate strategy, the appointment is the latest in a concerted series of moves to   differentiate the Bank in this area. Since January 2024, the Chief Investment Office (CIO) has been a standalone unit that reports directly to Chief Executive Officer Jason Moo. This year, the Chief Investment Office has also implemented a market leading wealth management and investment management technology platform to enhance the client experience through its client portfolio analysis and portfolio construction capabilities, which is already widely used by asset managers and institutional investors. Bank of Singapore is one of the first private banks in Asia to adopt the platform for private banking clients. In May 2024, Bank of Singapore launched a CIO Global Advisory Council, comprising experts from leading think tanks and asset managers around the world, to augment the Bank’s research capabilities and develop relevant insights for clients.”   In 2024 May, Bank of Singapore launched a new CIO Global Advisory Council with 8 members: 1) BlackRock Head of APAC Active Investments Belinda Boa, 2) Blackstone Global Co-CIO Ken Caplan, 3) M&G Investments CIO Equities, Multi-Asset & Sustainability Fabiana Fedeli, 4) Temasek Advisor Senior Director Robin Hu, 5) Goldman Sachs Co-Head for Office of Government Affairs APAC Stewart James, 6) Nomura Asset Management CIO Yuichi Murao, 7) Peterson Institute for International Economics President Adam Posen, and 8) KKR Chief Investment Strategist for Global Wealth Paula Campbell Roberts.

Jean Chia, Global Chief Investment Officer, Bank of Singapore: “Building intellectual capital is a key part of the bank’s strategy to become the top private bank in Asia. In today’s knowledge-driven economy, we aim to enhance our competitive advantage by hiring and developing talent in research and portfolio management capabilities. That is why we have, over the past years, expanded and deepened our research capabilities significantly to cope with a more challenging investing environment in the years ahead. Owi comes with vast experience and deep expertise, and I believe she will become an integral part of a strong and diverse team of investment professionals further differentiating the bank’s investment franchise.” 

Dr Owi S. Ruivivar Profile – Dr Ruivivar joins from Singapore’s GIC where she spearheaded investment-oriented thematic research at the Economics and Investment Strategy department. She also led the Future Markets investing team, which oversaw multi-asset investments across private and public markets in frontier Emerging Markets countries. During her tenure, Dr Ruivivar launched the GIC Research Network, which built cross-departmental research communities to leverage insights across the company and scale ideas for the total portfolio’s benefit.   Prior to GIC, Dr Ruivivar spent 17 years (2002 – 2019) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management (GSAM) where she was a founding portfolio manager of its Lipper-awarded Emerging Market debt franchise, responsible for over USD 60 billion in assets.

Jean Chia (谢佩华), Global Chief Investment Officer (环球首席投资官), Bank of Singapore: “Building intellectual capital is a key part of the bank’s strategy to become the top private bank in Asia.

The council pools together a group with valuable knowledge and deep expertise, strengthening our value proposition of becoming the go-to bank for investment advice and advisory and discretionary portfolio management.” 

 

 

Quality investment and portfolio advisory as a key differentiator 

  • With quality investment and portfolio advisory at the forefront of Bank of Singapore’s corporate strategy, the formation of the CIO Global Advisory Council is one of the latest in a concerted series of moves to differentiate the Bank in this area. 
  • Since January 2024, the Chief Investment Office has been a standalone unit that reports directly to Chief Executive Officer (首席执行官) Jason Moo (巫毅盛). The Chief Investment Office sets the asset allocation framework, investment views and securities research, while the advisory and discretionary portfolio management teams manage the clients’ assets in alignment with their return expectations and risk appetite. 
  • While the CIO Global Advisory Council offers complementary insights, the Bank’s house view – which guides investment decisions – is built upon the Chief Investment Office’s in-house research, investment strategy and asset allocation expertise. 
  • This year, the Chief Investment Office has also implemented a market leading wealth management and investment management technology platform to enhance the client experience through its client portfolio analysis and portfolio construction capabilities, which is already widely used by asset managers and institutional investors. Bank of Singapore is one of the first private banks in Asia to adopt the platform for private banking clients.
