Global commodities trader Trafigura said on Monday it had hired former asset manager Chin Hwee Tan as its chief executive officer for the Asia-Pacific.
Tan will be responsible "for continuing the growth of Trafigura's business across the region", Trafigura said in a statement.
Prior to joining Trafigura, Tan was the founder of the Asian operations of Apollo Global Management LLC, a global alternative investor with over $185 billion in assets under management, Trafigura said.
