PRecious Communications Hires Ng Chip Keng as Financial PR SVP
Singapore agency PRecious Communications appoints 30-year veteran Ng Chip Keng as SVP to lead corporate and financial practice serving banks, PE firms, and family offices.
Singapore-based integrated communications agency PRecious Communications has appointed industry veteran Ng Chip Keng as senior vice president to lead its corporate and financial practice, signaling the agency's expansion into specialized financial communications capabilities.
The appointment brings over 30 years of experience to the agency's leadership team. Ng will focus on financial communications for banks, private equity firms, venture capitalists, and family offices across Southeast Asian markets.
Building Senior Advisory Capabilities
Based in Singapore and reporting to regional COO Joanna Ong, Ng joins PRecious' senior leadership team to advise global and regional C-suite clients. His responsibilities span advising on financial transactions, investor relations, issues and crisis management, litigation, PR strategy, and financial services marketing.
Mission Media
Throughout his career, Ng has held senior leadership positions at prominent agencies including Ruder Finn, Weber Shandwick, Hill+Knowlton Strategies, and Rothman & Roman Group. He has also led branding and communications initiatives on the client side for RHTLaw Taylor Wessing and Sembcorp Industries, providing comprehensive insights into corporate reputation and connecting with key audiences.
Lars Voedisch, founder and group CEO of PRecious Communications, emphasized the strategic value of the hire. "Our clients are facing a constant stream of noise, from geopolitics and regulation to trade and tariff shifts, all of which can obscure what truly matters," Voedisch said. "They need experienced advisors who can cut through that noise, identify the real signals, and help them act with clarity."
Responding to Market Complexity
The appointment aligns with the agency's broader strategy to expand its advisory capabilities across corporate, financial, and professional sectors. As financial services firms across Asia Pacific navigate increasingly complex communications with key audiences, agencies are building specialized expertise to serve sophisticated client needs.
The hire reflects growing demand for senior financial communications advisors who can manage everything from traditional investor relations to digital crisis management. Banks, private equity firms, and family offices require advisors with deep experience across multiple communications disciplines as financial transactions and regulatory environments become more complex.
Regional Leadership Expansion
This appointment follows PRecious' regional leadership expansion announced last November, when Ong became the agency's first regional COO and Sunita Kanapathy assumed additional responsibility for the Malaysia market. Ong oversees key Southeast Asian markets and collaborates with Voedisch on operational excellence and sustainable growth initiatives.
The strategic moves demonstrate how integrated communications agencies are structuring their leadership teams to serve clients across multiple markets. With Ng's appointment, PRecious positions itself to handle sophisticated financial communications requirements for clients operating across Southeast Asia's diverse regulatory and business environments.
