She will succeed Virginia Devereux Wong, regional head of funds and ETFs, who will be leaving HSBC Private Banking at the end of June.

Lina Lim, regional head of discretionary, Asia, will take on the expanded role of regional head of discretionary and funds, citing a HSBC spokesperson.

In her new role, which combines Wong’s responsibilities, Lim will oversee discretionary, funds and ETFs in Asia. She will lead the team to introduce products by leveraging HSBC’s product manufacturing capabilities, HSBC said.

Lim joined HSBC Private Bank’s Investment Services and Product Solutions (ISPS) team in Asia Pacific in 2019 as regional head of discretionary, Asia, following over 13 years at J.P. Morgan in various roles, including head of its Institutional Wealth Management discretionary business in Asia for family offices.
