As a financial structurist, he was instrumental in success of a management buy-out deal for a Singapore company which later won the top 500 SMEs award for year 2008.

In the 80's during a depressed market he successfully structured the deal and procured a re- financial package from a single bank for an hotelier which was at the brink of foreclosure. The hotel company is now listed in the main board of SGX.

A well known icon commercial building in Hong Kong was partially funded via credit transformation thru procurement of credit facilities for the principal contractor in which he was the team leader. A condo project in Phuket Thailand was able to raise the sufficient offshore fund, during the Gulf war, via the advisory firm which he led.

He was able to raise sufficient fund for a public listed company (main board) for its private placement issue in less than a week (after the original underwriter withdrawn suddenly from underwriting the issue) and get a Monetary Authority of Singapore's licensed underwriter i.e. a well known stockbroking firm in Singapore to underwrite the issue as required by the Regulator although the fund for the issue was already secured.

In China he arranged one of the biggest companies in Middle East to be involved in a large transaction and organized meeting involving top local government officials for the Arabs in the government city hall.

He received advanced credit education from Citibank’s regional Advanced Accounts Manager Training Unit (AAMTU) in Manila, Philippines and was the Manager of Credit & Marketing in an international bank owned by Citibank and Lloyds Bank.

Whilst at Bankers Trust (NY), he was a Vice President and Division Head of Trade Banking for Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia.
