MoneyHero Limited (NASDAQ: MNY) (“MoneyHero” or the “Company”), a
market-leading personal finance and digital insurance aggregation
and comparison platform in Greater Southeast Asia, today announced
the appointment of Hao Qian as the Company’s new permanent Chief
Financial Officer (“CFO”), effective immediately. Reporting
directly to MoneyHero’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Rohith
Murthy, and the Company’s Board of Directors, Mr. Qian will be
based at MoneyHero’s headquarters in Singapore.
Mr. Qian brings 17-plus years of diverse
financial and leadership experience to MoneyHero. In his role as
CFO, Mr. Qian will oversee all the Company’s financial systems and
teams, including accounting, capital markets, compliance, and
investor relations. Additionally, Mr. Qian will play a key role in
strategic finance initiatives, including M&A and commercial
partnerships.
“After conducting a thorough and competitive
search process for our next CFO, we ultimately identified Hao as
being the clear choice for our Company,” said Mr. Murthy. “Hao is a
proven finance executive who has worked at globally respected
organizations, including APAC-centric businesses and companies that
are publicly traded on U.S. exchanges. Having recently listed on
the Nasdaq ourselves, it was critical to find the right CFO who not
only understands our model, markets, and mission, but also U.S.
capital markets. Importantly, Hao has strong experience in scaling
businesses and supporting ambitious growth strategies, and I am
proud of our team for finding such an ideal candidate. I look
forward to working closely together to build the business and drive
shareholder value.”
Mr. Qian joins MoneyHero from Alibaba Group,
where he held numerous senior finance positions over his nearly
eight years with the global ecommerce giant, including serving as
CFO of their Lazada business unit across multiple markets. Prior to
Alibaba, Mr. Qian served as a Senior Financial Analyst with Amazon.
He started his career with Credit Suisse, where he was a Risk
Analyst focused on commodities and later an Assistant Vice
President in the global credit products division. Mr. Qian’s
prestigious educational credentials include a Master of Business
Administration from the Sloan School of Management at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and a Master of Science
(finance) from the Rochester Institute of Technology. He completed
his undergraduate degree at Fudan University in Shanghai,
China.
“I am thrilled to begin my tenure as the next
CFO of MoneyHero,” said Mr. Qian. “This is a dynamic company with
an exceptional leadership team, a supportive Board of Directors,
strong growth drivers, and powerful access to capital. The business
model and plans for expansion are sound, and I am bullish on how we
can scale and optimize the Company’s financial systems to better
support MoneyHero’s continued growth and market leadership.”
In connection with this appointment, Ivan Ho,
who had served as the Company’s interim CFO since February 8th,
will return to his previous role as MoneyHero’s Group Finance
Director, where he will work closely with Mr. Qian.
