Acting Director, Financial Performance and Investments
Alex Leong
BCom FCPA
Alex joined NSW Trustee and Guardian in 2018 and has played a key role in the delivery of a number of initiatives including the tender for the NSWTG common fund custodian Citi Australia, co-ordinating the whole of Agency review with FTI Consulting which contributed to the increase in our government grant funding increase and supported the Agency’s financial sustainability.
"Working at NSW Trustee and Guardian ticks a lot of boxes from my technical background and experiences and there’s plenty of scope to do meaningful work in a financial sense. More importantly, it’s the fact that our people operate with a moral purpose that really strikes a cord."
He led the common funds rationalisation in 2020, consolidating 10 portfolios into 5 which led to process simplification and costs savings of $1.3 million over 5 years for NSW Trustee and Guardian. Prior to joining NSW Government, Alex spent several years at JP Morgan as Vice President in solutions & implementation division, has worked at TCorp Common Custodian Project, having started his career as an external auditor with Ernst & Young (previously Arthur Andersen). Alex is a fellow CPA, and has a Bachelor of Commerce, majoring in Accounting and Finance.
