Hugosave has appointed Karl Franks as its Chief Operating Officer responsible for driving Hugosave’s strategic growth initiatives in Singapore and Asia-Pacific.
Franks will also oversee the Singapore-based fintech firm’s day-to-day operations and enhance operational effectiveness to support the company’s mission of elevating lives through Wealthcare.
With more than 20 years of leadership experience, including 15 years in the financial services industry, he has led the delivery of strategic business management and major transformational programmes across banking divisions and consulting for major financial institutions.
“As we look to expand our investment offerings for users later this year and expand our footprint in Asia, Karl’s extensive leadership experience will be instrumental in propelling Hugosave to greater heights and helping more people achieve Wealthcare,” said David Fergusson, CEO of Hugosave.
Before joining Hugosave, Franks was the Chief of Staff to the Asia-Pacific Chief Operating Officer at UBS Wealth Management Singapore, where he oversaw the company’s regional business strategy and led the merger of the wealth institution’s COO office and operational team.
“I am excited to join the team as we enter the next chapter of growth and bring onboard more product offerings to help everyone and anyone achieve Wealthcare through a single platform,” said Franks.
