Caplin Systems has appointed Michael Wee as its newest general manager and head of Asia sales, part of a concerted effort to develop the company’s presence and commitment in the Asiatic region.
In his new role as general manager and head of Asia sales, Mr. Wee will be based out of Caplin’s freshly launched Singapore office. He will be tasked with leading sales and business development for the Asia-Pacific (APAC) ) region.
Mr. Wee joins Caplin from Thomson Reuters, having worked in a number of senior level roles totalling over 35 years’ worth of experience. Additional stops include FSS and IBM.
According to Mr. Wee in a recent statement on the appointment, "I look forward to expanding Caplin’s footprint in Asia. There is a strong demand for online and mobile trading in the region and Caplin is in a great position to deliver that.”
”The continued investment in our Singapore office reflects our commitment to the Asia Pacific region. We are delighted to have someone with Michael’s experience and contacts to drive our business there. He’s worked for banks on trading desks and latterly as a manager of Fintech businesses. This is a great combination and I wish him every success,” added John Ashworth, CEO of Caplin Systems.
