RHB Singapore has officially appointed Goh Ken-Yi as its new Chief Executive Officer, signaling a strategic leadership shift as the bank continues to strengthen its presence in the Southeast Asian financial market. Goh steps into the role immediately, succeeding Danny Quah, who will now take on a broader responsibility as Managing Director of International Business for RHB Banking Group.
With more than two decades of experience in investment banking and financial services, Goh brings a wealth of expertise and vision to the role. Prior to this appointment, he served as Deputy CEO of RHB Singapore, where he played a pivotal role in shaping the bank’s strategic direction and driving operational efficiency.
In his new capacity, Goh will be focused on accelerating RHB Singapore’s digital transformation, enhancing customer experience, and rolling out innovative financial solutions tailored to meet the changing needs of clients. His leadership will also be critical in driving the bank’s sustainability agenda and positioning RHB Singapore as a forward-thinking, digitally enabled financial institution.
The leadership reshuffle also marks an important step for RHB Banking Group’s international growth strategy. Danny Quah, the former CEO of RHB Singapore, now transitions into a group-wide leadership role, overseeing the development and expansion of RHB’s international business portfolio. His appointment reflects the bank’s confidence in leveraging seasoned internal talent to spearhead its global ambitions.
The dual appointments of Goh and Quah highlight RHB’s commitment to strong succession planning and long-term leadership continuity. Both executives are expected to play crucial roles in strengthening the bank’s competitive edge across regional markets and delivering consistent value to shareholders and stakeholders alike.
As RHB Singapore begins a new chapter under Goh’s leadership, the bank is poised to advance its innovation initiatives, deepen client relationships, and continue building on its reputation as one of the region’s most reliable and customer-focused financial institutions.
