Value Partners has appointed Winnie Lam (pictured) as managing director of the group’s chief operating officer’s office.
In her new role, Lam is responsible for managing asset management firm’s overall operations and back-office functions.
She will report to Cheng Hye Cheah and Louis So, both co-chairmen and co-chief investment officers at the company.
Lam previously served as head of operations for Asia at First Sentier Investors, as well as holding senior leadership roles at several fund management firms, including vice president, Hong Kong at J.P. Morgan Securities and head of settlement and fund administration at Lloyd George Management.
Cheah and So both comment: “[Winnie Lam] is well-respected in the industry and brings in decades of experience in leading operations management, as Value Partners seeks to capture new growth opportunities arising from the opening up of China’s financial services sector and expansion into different asset classes.”
Value Partners also appointed Nikita Ng as finance director earlier this month, in which she is responsible for leading the finance function of the group.
Ng has industry experience in financial reporting, internal control assessment, regulation and corporate transactions, having most recently served as financial controller at Fortress Investment Group and Mount Kellett Capital.
The two appointments follow the impending departure of chief financial officer and chief administrative officer Icy Wong next month. Her responsibilities will be taken up by both Lam and Ng.
