Gresham Supercharges APAC Expansion
Gresham Technologies has taken a bold step in its Asia-Pacific growth strategy by appointing a fintech veteran as regional sales director.
Global enterprise data automation firm Gresham announced Hayley Zhu’s appointment on Thursday, positioning her at the helm of the company’s regional sales efforts.
She will lead go-to-market strategies across Asia-Pacific, reinforcing Gresham’s role as a strategic partner for financial institutions grappling with data complexity, compliance pressures, and digital transformation.
APAC Financial Sector at a Crossroads
Zhu brings more than 20 years of experience in financial technology, with a strong focus on enterprise data and regulatory platforms. Her deep knowledge of both buy- and sell-side environments equips her to help institutions future-proof their operations.
Zhu joins Gresham at a critical inflection point for financial institutions across the region. Economic uncertainty, regulatory tightening, and geopolitical pressures are intensifying the demand for operational resilience and technological innovation.
Reshaping the Financial Services Landscape
Simultaneously, the rise of digital assets, regional economic integration, and fiscal reforms are reshaping the financial services landscape. However, many institutions remain stuck with legacy data systems that hinder innovation and limit scalability.
Adding to the challenge is a widening skills gap in the financial data sector. As costs surge and talent shortages persist, firms are realizing that manual, resource-heavy data management processes are no longer sustainable.
High-Profile Clients
With clients like Standard Chartered, ANZ, Green Link Digital Bank, and Treasury Corporation of Victoria, Gresham has already established a strong regional foothold. The company’s innovative platforms – Prime EDM and Control Cloud – are purpose-built to handle the sector’s most pressing data and reconciliation demands.
By providing end-to-end automation and real-time data controls, Gresham empowers institutions to boost operational efficiency, ensure compliance, and embrace next-generation technologies with confidence.
Under Zhu’s leadership, the company is doubling down on its commitment to enabling agility and resilience across Asia-Pacific’s financial ecosystem.
