Seated in a meeting room at United Overseas Bank (SGX:U11) (UOB) Malaysia’s corporate building, United Overseas Bank (UOB Group) deputy chairman and CEO Wee Ee Cheong is a picture of calm composure.

Wee describes UOB as an “old man”, as it is poised to celebrate its 90th anniversary next year, but emphasises that the bank remains progressive.

This is evident from the millions of Singapore dollars it has already poured into IT investment, especially in the last decade, with no plans to stop there.
