ARTHUR D. LITTLE APPOINTS JUSTIN TAN AS HEAD OF FINANCIAL SERVICES PRACTICE IN SOUTH EAST ASIA AND TAIWAN

Singapore, July 14, 2022

Arthur D. Little (ADL) today announced that Justin Tan has been appointed as a Partner and Head of the company’s Financial Services practice in South East Asia and Taiwan. His experience spans strategy development, business transformation and risk management for clients in retail and business banking, corporate banking, wealth management and private banking, and private equity. Justin will be based in Singapore.

Prior to joining ADL, Justin was a career consultant, industry practitioner, and entrepreneur. He started his consulting career at Oliver Wyman, eventually becoming the lead Partner for retail and business banking, as well as wealth management, in Asia-Pacific. After Oliver Wyman, Justin co-founded an advisory firm focusing on financial institutions and incubating new ventures. He was also previously the Head of Strategy and Business Development for Merrill Lynch Wealth Management in the Pacific Rim, leading both organic and inorganic growth initiatives.

Justin’s expertise includes the application of advanced data analytics across digital and traditional segments, helping organizations to build robust analytics capabilities, and leveraging analytical insights to enhance business decision-making.

Philippe De Backer, Managing Partner and Global Practice Leader of Financial Services at ADL, comments: “Justin has over 20 years of experience providing strategic advice to clients as both a consultant and industry practitioner, and will make an excellent leader of our Financial Services practice in South East Asia and Taiwan. But what makes him especially perfect for ADL is his keen entrepreneurial outlook and attitude. Our culture encourages thinking outside the box and a willingness to drive and develop projects to their full potential, and Justin epitomizes this spirit.”

Justin Tan, Partner at ADL, adds: “I’m very excited at the challenge of heading up the Financial Services team in what’s an incredibly vibrant market. Banks and financial companies in South East Asia and Taiwan have been among some of the first to embrace the possibilities of digitalization, as both institutional and consumer demands change. However, there is still much work to be done in transforming the financial services sector and accelerating its adoption of best practices. Companies are looking for partners who can help them to innovate, and ADL is well-positioned to fulfil this role.”

Justin graduated with a Bachelor of Science (with distinction) and Master of Science (Management Science) degree from Stanford University. He also holds both Chartered Financial Consultant (CFA) and Financial Risk Manager (FRM) certifications.
