[SINGAPORE] Piyush Gupta is back at the heart of Singapore’s listed corporate scene. The 65-year-old, who left DBS in late March after serving as chief executive officer for more than 15 years, became non-executive deputy chairman of Keppel on Tuesday (Jul 1).
After spending some months getting an in-depth understanding of Keppel, might Gupta step up as the global asset manager and operator’s chairman?
Keppel’s current chairman Danny Teoh has been in his position since April 2021 and on the group’s board since October 2010. Teoh spent 27 years with professional services firm KPMG in Singapore where he held various senior positions.
