Wing Fai Ho

Chief Actuarial Consultant
Hong Kong

Summary

A qualified actuary, with fellowship member in the US and Hong Kong Actuarial Society with 20+ years of experience working in insurance companies in Asian countries. Meeting with different levels of stakeholders, project planning / implementation and risk management in my current and previous roles had provided me with solid development of leadership, communication, project management and problem solving skills. I am excited about the development of AI in "insurtech" and looking forward to working on this.
