ô[Taylor] has the necessary skills and expertise required to lead the development and growth of our business in Singapore,ö says John Laurens, HSBCÆs head of global payments and cash management in Asia-Pacific. ôHis strong client orientation and front line experience will serve our clients and the continued development of our Asia-Pacific cash management franchise extremely well.ö
Under TaylorÆs helm, HSBC Singapore hopes to expand transaction banking services to various multinational, regional and small- and medium-sized enterprises.
ôSingapore continues to develop in its own right as a regional financial and treasury centre and there is a greater need for specialised cash management products and services in the corporate and institutional space,ö says a HSBC representative. ôAs a senior member of our leadership team, Iain's appointment evidences our commitment to meeting our clients' emerging demands in this important regional hub.ö
