Description (Please provide a detailed description of the event in the box below)
SGX Group (Singapore Exchange) is strengthening its technology and operations strategy to support the next phase of its infrastructure growth, with a focus on building more advanced, scalable and client-centric market platforms.
The move reflects the growing importance of exchange infrastructure as a competitive differentiator. SGX is investing in technology platforms and operating capabilities as a core lever of growth, while upholding the trust, stability and integrity expected of a systemically important market infrastructure.
SGX Group's Chief Information Officer, Tinku Gupta, has decided to move on from her current position to focus on expanding her portfolio into board and advisory roles. She joined SGX in 1996 and has spent nearly three decades with the organisation, holding senior leadership roles across business, technology and operations. As CIO, she strengthened SGX's market infrastructure, embedded execution discipline and drove efficiency in technology and operations.
During this time, SGX has significantly expanded its market coverage, product suite and client capabilities, increasing the demands on platform resilience, execution and service delivery. To enable the next phase of growth, SGX is reinforcing dedicated leadership for technology and operations. This will enable faster delivery of new capabilities and strengthen the Group's ability to execute change at scale.
With effect from 6 May 2026, Nick Sawyer has been appointed Chief Information Officer Designate, reporting to the CEO. He will assume the role of Chief Information Officer from 1 July 2026, leading SGX's technology strategy and overseeing platform resilience and architecture, proprietary technology and IP, cybersecurity and disciplined change delivery.
Lester Ngoh will be appointed Head of Exchange Operations Designate from 6 May 2026, reporting to the CEO. He will formally take on the role from 1 July 2026, with responsibility for operational performance, service quality and delivery, custody modernisation, and the development of exchange data as an enterprise-wide value engine.
Loh Boon Chye, CEO, SGX Group, said, "Strong market infrastructure is not just about meeting today's requirements. It must enable what comes next. We are building the technology and operating capabilities that will allow us to scale with confidence, serve our markets more effectively and act decisively as opportunities arise. I want to thank Tinku for her leadership and lasting contributions and look forward to Nick and Lester building on this strong foundation as we take SGX Group forward."
