In his new role, Ashroff will aim to enhance customer digital experiences by developing and implementing technology strategies that align with AIA Singapore's vision and business goals.

“More importantly, with Afees' appointment, AIA Singapore remains committed to our people-first culture, where talent development and internal mobility will ensure we give the best opportunities to our people.”
