Asset-based lending and factoring platform HPD LendScape has appointed market specialist Kheng Leong Lee as its regional representative for the Asia Pacific region, an announcement revealed.

Lee will be based in Singapore. He spent 33 years out of his 40-year career at DBS as Senior Vice President and Head of Factoring for South Asia.

Before joining HPD LendScape, Lee was the chapter director for Asia and the regional director for South and South East Asia for Factors Chain International. Prior to this, he was the managing director of Bibby Financial Services in Singapore.
