Regional CEO appointment follows internal merger of Liberty Insurance and Liberty Specialty Markets under single licence Liberty has appointed Jimmy Tong as its CEO for Singapore with effect from 27 April 2026, subject to regulatory approval. Based in Singapore, Tong will report to Matthew Jackson, president Asia Pacific. The appointment follows the unification of Liberty Insurance and Liberty Specialty Markets under a single insurance licence on 1 January 2026. Matthew Jackson, president Asia Pacific at Liberty, said the move forms part of a wider regional strategy. “In Asia Pacific, our goal this year is to operate as one Liberty in each market – creating a simpler, stronger organisation for our customers and partners,” Jackson said. “The completion of the Singapore company transfer, together with securing Jimmy to lead the business, represents a strong start to the year,” he added. Tong will lead Liberty’s unified Singapore business, located at One Raffles Quay. The combined operation provides access to a broad range of general insurance and reinsurance products spanning personal lines, commercial insurance and bespoke solutions for major construction projects, corporate clients and government entities. Following the company unification, former chief executive of Liberty Insurance Yasar Fistikci has taken the role of chief product officer Singapore. Nicole Lim, CEO of Liberty Specialty Markets in Singapore, will depart at the end of April to explore opportunities outside the firm. Jackson said the integration marks an important milestone for the group’s Asia Pacific platform. “In Asia Pacific, our goal this year is to operate as one Liberty in each market – creating a simpler, stronger organisation for our customers and partners,” he said. “The completion of the Singapore company transfer, together with securing Jimmy to lead the business, represents a strong start to the year,” he added.
