Bank of Singapore expands CIO advisory council with PIMCO and KKR picks

The council is now composed of 11 members.

Bank of Singapore (BOS) welcomed two new members to its Chief Investment Office’s (CIO) Global Advisory Council.

John Studzinksi, vice chairman and managing director of PIMCO, and Lauren Goodwin, managing director and chief investment strategist of KKR, join an 11-member council that includes representatives from Temasek, Nomura Asset Management, Peterson Institute for International Economics, and M&G Investments.

The advisory council is expected to benefit the private bank's ultra-high net worth families and high net worth clients.

They shape the Bank of Singapore’s annual supertrends report, which lays out the structural trends shaping markets over a five-year period, the bank said.

The council is also involved in BoS’s CIO Summit and Portfolio Summit.

Returning members of the council are:

Dr. Adam Posen, President, Peterson Institute for International Economics
Fabiana Fedeli, Chief Investment Officer, Equities, Multi-Asset & Sustainability, M&G Investments
John Emerson, Former US Ambassador to Germany and Vice Chair, Capital Group International, Inc.
Dr. Kai Guo, President and Senior Fellow, CF40 Institute
Robin Hu, Chair Emeritus, Asia, Milken Institute and Advisory Senior Director, Temasek
Torsten Slok, Chief Economist and Partner, Apollo Global Management
Yuichi Murao, Global Head of Japanese Equity, Nomura Asset Management

Bank of Singapore welcomed a new head for its Dubai business earlier in 2026.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
