Singapore's DBS China consumer bank head quits

SINGAPORE, July 3 (Reuters) - DBS Group's head of consumer banking for Greater China has resigned and will be replaced by a former executive from ABN AMRO, a spokeswoman for the Singapore bank said on Thursday.

Linda Wong, the former country executive for Dutch lender ABN AMRO in China, will be DBS' new head of consumer banking in Hong Kong and China, DBS spokeswoman Karen Ngui said.

Wong, who will join DBS in September, will succeed Sunny Cheung who is leaving the bank for personal reasons, she said.

Southeast Asia's biggest bank is grappling with a string of high-profile departures since its previous chief executive Jackson Tai left the bank last year.
