The Singapore-headquartered private bank, which operates in a number of regions, has appointed one of its senior figures to the role.

Bank of Singapore, the private banking arm of Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation (OCBC), has appointed Collins Chin as global chief financial officer, with immediate effect. The previous CFO was Ho Soo Woon, who left the bank in March 2025, according to his LinkedIn profile. He is now director, Community Foundation Of Singapore.

Before taking on the role, Chin was OCBC’s head of investor relations.

As part of the move, Chin will be a member of the bank’s global management committee, reporting to BoS’s chief executive Jason Moo. 

WealthBriefing has asked Bank of Singapore whether the global CFO position is a newly formed one or a replacement for a departing figure, and may update this article in due course.

Chin joined OCBC in July 2009 as the head of group financial and management reporting. He became head of investor relations in May 2013. Prior to joining OCBC, Chin held regional leadership positions in Royal Bank of Scotland, Standard Chartered Bank and Barclays Capital across the finance, capital markets and risk functions. Chin holds a bachelor’s degree in accountancy from Nanyang Technological University and is a chartered accountant of Australia and New Zealand.

“His appointment is testament to the commitment of OCBC Group to nurture homegrown talent and provide opportunities for career progression and mobility across the group,” Moo said.
