After many years leading finexis, Warren lim will be stepping down as CEO, with Catherine Wong taking over the role.
Warren has been a big part of both my journey and EXO Advisory’s journey.
As a team, we have grown through many different seasons of the firm. Along the way, Warren has led through the pressure, complexity and responsibility that come with building and running an organisation like finexis. We are grateful for the years he has given to the firm, and for the support, guidance and opportunities that have helped shape who we are today.
What we respect most is how he has chosen to step down.
He is doing so while his health is good, the firm is in a strong position, and he still has much to contribute. It takes clarity to recognise that there are other important things in life, especially family, and courage to act before circumstances make the decision for you.
Even in stepping down, Warren continues to show us another side of leadership. Leadership is not only about stepping up. Sometimes, it is also about knowing when to pass the baton while you are still on a high.
We are glad that Warren will continue contributing through training. Many senior FCs and leaders have benefited from his experience and teaching over the years, including many of us at EXO. We suspect quite a few people will be happy to get even more of Warren in this next chapter.
On behalf of everyone at EXO Advisory, thank you, Warren, for your leadership, contribution and the role you have played in our journey.
We are genuinely happy for you and wish you and your family the very best for what comes next.
