Tong Set to Retain Financial Services Roundtable Post as Lin Tipped for Secretary-General

Taiwan’s Financial Services Roundtable serves as a key conduit between banks, insurers and securities firms and the Financial Supervisory Commission. Chairman Tong Ruey-bin has used the industry group’s platform to advise policymakers on plans for an Asian asset-management hub and to promote financial-technology cooperation and joint anti-fraud initiatives, making its leadership election important for continuity in regulatory and industry coordination.

Tong is expected to retain the chairmanship in the roundtable’s latest leadership election, preserving his central role in dialogue between financial institutions and regulators. Attention is also focused on the secretary-general position, with Lin Yen-mao, chairman of Taiwan Cooperative Financial Holding Co., reportedly in line for the post. If confirmed, the appointment would mark a significant personnel transition while keeping the group’s asset-management, fintech and fraud-prevention agenda broadly intact.
