Société Générale ( SocGen ) has appointed Ken Tung as its head of industry group for healthcare in Asia-Pacific, reporting regionally to Stephanie Clement de Givry, the bank’s head of global banking and advisory for Asia-Pacific, and functionally to Carl Bassili and Bruno Magnouat, global co-heads of investment banking.
In his new role, Tung, who will be based in Hong Kong, will oversee the origination and execution of investment banking activities in the healthcare sector across the region, working closely with the bank’s global healthcare industry group.
His responsibilities include mergers and acquisitions, equity capital markets, equity private placements and a broad range of investment banking solutions, while also strengthening SocGen’s strategic dialogue with key clients in the sector.
He will continue to serve as head of financial sponsors coverage for Asia-Pacific, the bank says, supporting clients in identifying and executing strategic initiatives that drive growth and long-term value.
“Tung’s three decades of investment banking experience, combined with his deep understanding of the healthcare landscape in Asia-Pacific and the US,” Clement de Givry notes, “will be crucial to accelerating our growth in this important sector.”
