HKEX appoints Singapore head to lead expansion

Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (0388) has named Adeline Ee as managing director, head of sales and marketing, Asean, effective from April 4.

Based in Singapore, Ee will head HKEX's Singapore office, and will be responsible for leading the expansion of business across Southeast Asia, adding new clients and flows while further elevating the exchange operator's profile across the region.

Ee will work alongside Roger McAvoy, who will transition to a new international client-facing role within the company. Ee will report to HKEX's co-heads of sales and marketing, Christina Bao and Kevin Rideout.

Ee joins HKEX from the Singapore Exchange, where she has worked for nearly 20 years in senior sales and product management roles.

Ee was most recently global head of sales, equities and fixed-income, currencies and commodities at SGX, a role she has held since 2019, where she oversaw the launch of several flagship products.

She was previously the head of SGX's office in Hong Kong, as well as head of sales for Asia Pacific and the Middle East, among other roles, having joined SGX in 2003.
