Former Singapore Minister and Revolut Chairman Appointed Advisers to Singapore Gulf Bank Parent
Published
The parent company of Singapore Gulf Bank has appointed two new advisers: former Singapore minister Maliki Osman and Martin Gilbert, the chairman of Revolut. The appointments were reported by Fintech Singapore, a news website that covers financial technology in the region.
Maliki Osman served as a minister in the Singapore government before leaving public office. Martin Gilbert is the chairman of Revolut, a financial technology company that offers digital banking services to customers in many countries. Their experience in government and in the fast-growing fintech industry may be useful to a bank that is working in both traditional banking and new digital services.
The report does not give full details about the specific responsibilities the two advisers will have. It also does not explain how long their appointments will last. Readers who want more information may need to wait for an official statement from the company.
The news shows continued interest in Singapore's financial sector, which is a major centre for banking and technology. Singapore has been working to make its banks more digital while keeping the strong rules that protect customers and investors. Future updates from the bank could show how these advisers will help shape its plans.
