Barclays has hired Rickie Chan as market head, Hong Kong, to its wealth and investment management division.
Chan joins Barclays from Goldman Sachs, where he was executive director, managing a team of bankers responsible for serving Hong Kong’s ultra high net worth (UHNW) individuals.
At his new employer, he will be responsible for building the firm’s Hong Kong business at an aggressive pace, working closely with the rest of the Barclays Group in delivering the value of the firm to its Hong Kong clients.
"With China’s emergence as the world’s largest exporter, and with RMB trade settlement continuing to gain traction and prominence, Hong Kong’s position as a RMB financial hub will further grow in importance and stature,” said Pakorn Boonya-kurkul, head of wealth management for Barclays in North Asia.
