Boost has announced key leadership appointments aimed at supporting its ongoing growth and strengthening its digital financial services ecosystem.
Ungku Norliza Syazwan Ungku Halmie has been appointed Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Boost Bank.
Previously the CEO of Boost Life, Ungku Norliza was instrumental in scaling the Boost eWallet into a rapidly growing platform.
Recognised as ‘Female Leader of the Year’ in 2023, she will now work alongside Boost Bank CEO Fozia Amanulla to drive the bank’s expansion and innovation plans.
In addition, Gin Wong has been appointed Head of Consumer Business, taking over leadership of Boost Life.
In her previous role as Head of Product, she played a key role in developing the eWallet into a comprehensive financial tool.
In her new role, she will be responsible for advancing consumer strategy, user experience, and product innovation.
Commenting on the appointments, Sheyantha Abeykoon, Group CEO of Boost, said:
“At Boost, one of our core principles is creating a platform where every employee can grow and thrive professionally. We believe it’s our responsibility to provide opportunities, and it’s up to our people to seize them. There’s nothing more fulfilling than seeing Boosties who embrace this chance and advance in their careers, fueling our collective growth as a company. Leaders like Ungku Liza and Gin exemplify this spirit, and we’re immensely proud whenever we can open doors for our own people to rise within Boost.”
These changes reflect Boost’s focus on developing internal talent and building leadership capacity as it advances its goal of becoming a leading regional digital banking group.
