Rakesh Singh joined the non-banking finance company as chief executive officer earlier this month after a 15 year stint with Standard Chartered Bank. "I make it a point to visit the gymnasium every day. I'm a keen cricket lover and used to play the game. Now, I hardly have time to play and prefer to spend time with my family when I'm not working," Singh said.
He started his career with Standard Chartered Bank and worked in the capital markets, wealth management and mortgage lending divisions of the bank in various capacities.
His most recent assignment was as the general manager of small and medium enterprises business of the bank.
Known to his former colleagues for his hard work, Singh is credited with the success of making the SME business one of the fastest growing within the bank in India in recent years.
