Yangzijiang Maritime names Sun Jianping CFO after controller resigns

Former chief investment officer takes finance role from 20 March.

Yangzijiang Maritime Development has re-designated chief investment officer Sun Jianping as chief financial officer, effective 20 March, following the resignation of its financial controller.

The company said Sun, 40, will be responsible for the group’s finance, accounting, tax, and risk management functions.

The board said it approved the move after considering the nominating committee’s recommendation and was satisfied that Sun has the experience and capabilities to assume the role.

Sun joined Yangzijiang Maritime as CIO in October 2025. Before that, he was the manager of financial leasing at Jiangsu Yangchuan Investment Development from January 2023 to October 2025, and the manager of investment and financial management at Jiangsu New Yangzi Shipbuilding from October 2010 to December 2022.

Yangzijiang Maritime said investment-related matters will continue to be managed by its executive chairman and chief executive, the CFO, and the head of the maritime fund.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
