PROMINENT economist Chua Hak Bin has joined Maybank Kim Eng after leaving Bank of America Merrill Lynch (BAML) last year, and after a short stint at Singapore's sovereign wealth fund GIC.
He now starts off in his new role - and the new year - with a strong optimism that the Singapore economy can achieve a 2.5 per cent growth this year, while also urging the city-state to be more open to foreign workers.
