Bank of Singapore is expanding its family office and wealth advisory leadership team as demand grows for succession planning, legacy management and wealth transfer solutions among ultra-high-net-worth clients.
The private banking subsidiary of OCBC Group has appointed Elvin Ho as Head of Family Office and Structuring Solutions, effective 4 May 2026.
He will lead the competency and solutions centre, focusing on wealth structures and philanthropy.
Ho joins from JPMorgan Private Bank, where he advised Southeast Asian clients on multi-jurisdictional taxation and succession planning. He previously spent 19 years at UBS in various senior wealth planning roles.
In a related move, Jiawen Guo takes on the newly created role of Head of Family Office and Wealth Advisory for Singapore. She will oversee the wealth advisory team based in the city state.
The bank also named Harry Ng as Senior Wealth Advisor, managing key client relationships for the Singapore and Malaysian markets.
Christine Wong and Yasmine Omari will continue to lead the regional teams in Hong Kong and Dubai respectively. All five executives report to Paul Chua, the bank’s Head of Family Office and Wealth Advisory.
“We have taken the opportunity to optimise our global team structure for future growth with strong leadership to support initiatives out of our Singapore, Hong Kong and Dubai hubs,”
said Paul Chua, Head of Family Office and Wealth Advisory, Bank of Singapore.
The leadership expansion aligns with OCBC Group’s Whole-of-Wealth strategy. The team will provide clients with access to solutions involving OCBC Bank and Great Eastern Holdings.
