David Koay has left his Singapore-based role after a decade on the job. He was responsible for covering the ASEAN markets includingu Malaysia, Thailand, Indochina as well as the non-resident Indians (NRIs).  

A spokesperson from the bank declined to comment on Koay’s exit.

Koay held multiple positions during his tenure at Standard Chartered Bank across its investment and private banking divisions.

Initially, Koay held corporate and investment banking positions including deputy head of corporate banking Malaysia and head of wholesale banking for UAE. In 2011, he moved across to the private bank where he was also head of key clients solutions before taking on his most recent role.
