He said: "We set sail in Singapore in July 2008 with the setting up of an equities sales and trading business. CICC was the first Chinese investment bank seeking a presence in this market, as we saw the strategic importance of Singapore as a financial hub in Southeast Asia. We've had a very fruitful and mutually-beneficial journey alongside you over the past 10 years. Standing at the 10-year juncture, looking back, we are glad to have shared our growth and achievements with you. Looking ahead, we shall be privileged to continue our partnership with you. Together we'll make greater contributions to the growth of Singapore and the region."

It is already a global operation, and growing beyond a lot of its original areas of focus. Singapore is a beachhead for CICC. In a span of 10 years, CICC Singapore has achieved a high level of areas of excellence."
