Bio:
Born and bred in Singapore, Mei-ing has spent most of her career in the financial services, mostly focusing on marketing, business development and relationship management. She’s spent the past seven and a half years at ipac financial planning, where the highlights for her have been championing financial education to consumers in Singapore and Hong Kong; and starting the Women Mean Business network, which aims to help women achieve work-life success through financial empowerment. Having worked in a fairly affluent society, promoting important messages about making the right money decisions and planning for the future, she would like to focus now on working with a different group of people - a group that needs the most basic of financial services for economic security and for a livelihood – and make a difference where it matters most.
