    OCBC has appointed a seasoned hand in Greater China Helen Wong to be its new group chief executive officer from April 15.

    Ms Wong, former chief executive of HSBC in Greater China, will be the bank's first female CEO and the first woman to head a Singapore bank.

    The 59-year-old rejoined OCBC last year as deputy president and head of global wholesale banking after nearly three decades of banking experience in Greater China.
