THE managers of Frasers Hospitality Trust – a stapled group comprising Frasers Hospitality Reit and Frasers Hospitality Business Trust – have named Benjamin Kuah as chief financial officer (CFO) on Tuesday (Sep 24).
The 44-year-old will begin his role from Wednesday, and his responsibilities will include the financial, taxation, treasury and compliance functions of the trust, said the managers in a bourse filing.
Kuah is currently head of finance at Frasers Hospitality International, a role that he took up in January 2024. Before that, he was CFO and head of investor relations at Paragon Reit for more than four years.
He graduated from Nanyang Technological University with a Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting), and is also a chartered accountant with the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants.
The bourse filing added that Kuah is currently assisting in an investigation under the Road Traffic Act 1961.
The nominating and remuneration committee and the board maintain that Kuah is “fit and proper” to carry out his duties, and that the “subject matter of the investigation does not relate to (his) integrity… nor relates to the securities or futures industry”.
