SGX CEO Bocker set to leave by end-June

The search for the next CEO is on.

Singapore Exchange CEO Magnus Bocker is leaving his post by the end of June, the SGX revealed yesterday.

Bocker is not seeking extension of his appointment beyond his current contract, which will be completed on 30 June 2015. He has been the CEO of SGX since 1 December 2009.

“There is a time and season for everything, and it is now time for me to take on new challenges,” Bocker stated.

The SGX Board is moving forward with its CEO succession plan and is assessing internal and external candidates on a short list.

It has engaged the global executive search and leadership advisory firm Spencer Stuart to facilitate the process.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
