Société Générale has appointed Selina Cheung as head of equity capital markets, Asia-Pacific, effective immediately.

Based in Hong Kong, Cheung will lead the growth of the investment bank’s equity capital markets ( ECM ) franchise in Asia-Pacific, overseeing the origination and execution of equity and equity‑linked transactions.

She will work closely with teams across Asia, the United States and Europe, and leverage Bernstein’s research expertise and distribution capabilities of Bernstein, a joint venture with American asset manager AllianceBernstein, to enhance client dialogue.

Cheung will play a pivotal role in deepening the SocGen’s relationships with corporates and financial sponsors across Asia-Pacific, supporting its investment banking franchise in the region.

She reports regionally to Stephanie Clement de Givry, head of global banking and advisory for Asia-Pacific, and functionally to Jeff Mortara and Anvita Arora, co-heads of global equity capital markets.

Cheung has more than 20 years of experience in the capital markets. Prior to joining Société Générale, she served as head of unified global banking APAC at UBS, where she led a team delivering business across the wealth management and investment banking divisions.

With over a decade of experience at UBS, she held various senior leadership positions, including co‑head of Asia ECM and head of private financing markets APAC. She has led a number of landmark IPOs, follow‑on offerings, and convertible bond transactions, as well as major private equity financings for Asian corporates in Hong Kong and the US.

She holds a bachelor of laws from University College London and was a qualified Hong Kong corporate lawyer before transitioning into the banking industry.
