Vincent joined FWD Singapore in 2019 as general manager, life business. He helped establish the insurer’s financial adviser channel and later executed its high-net-worth strategy. Vincent has over 20 years of experience, and he was previously deputy CEO at HSBC Life Insurance Singapore. He reports to Binayak Dutta, managing director for emerging markets and group chief distribution officer.

“Adrian’s appointment as Singapore CEO reflects our commitment to nurture talent from within,” Dutta said. “I’m confident that Adrian will continue to pioneer our customer-led approach to insurance, leveraging the talented team that we have developed in our Singapore business in recent years.”

“Together we are forging our path as a next-generation insurer in Singapore that is making protection, retirement savings, and legacy planning in the country easy, accessible, and affordable,” Vincent said. “I look forward to continuing to work closely with the Singapore team and delivering on our vision of changing the way people feel about insurance.”
