Join us while we chat with Kah Seng Lim to find out his thoughts on the business and what it’s like working here.

Since joining Apera, I have been given the opportunity to gain a huge variety of exposure to different aspects of the business, including fund raising, FX hedging, treasury management and portfolio management. This is a testament to Apera’s open culture and strong team dynamics. It is exciting to be part of the Apera family and to see the firm’s transformation and progress during my time here.
