Head, Digital Payments & Ecosystems, OCBC Bank

A veteran of the banking and payments industry for more than 15 years, Gary is a passionate driver for cashless payments before it was “cool”. Gary’s astute and keen nose for carving out the potential for innovation and opportunities in the realm of cashless payments was developed from his time leading projects across the “Big Three” local banks in Singapore.

Gary is also a firm believer that a success payment system must go beyond the traditional utility of just facilitating payments. Payments needs to be frictionless and fully integrated into one’s daily activities, both online and offline. He is currently on a mission to build an ecosystem that extends beyond traditional banking services and right into every aspect of a consumers’ life journey.
