GIC’S deputy group chief investment officer (CIO) Bryan Yeo will ascend to the role of group CIO on Apr 1, following the retirement of Jeffrey Jaensubhakij.
Jaensubhakij steps down after almost three decades at the firm to take on the mantle as GIC adviser.
In his new role, Yeo, 46, will oversee the sovereign wealth fund’s total investment portfolio, said GIC in a statement on Tuesday (Feb 4).
Yeo joined GIC in 2003 as a portfolio manager in the fixed income department and rose to senior roles including head of credit markets as well as head of credit research and strategy.
He served as CIO for public equities from 2016 to 2024, and was appointed deputy CIO in April last year.
Meanwhile, Boon Chin Hau, 50, will become CIO for infrastructure on Apr 1.
