Equity Bottom-Up

Five years ago, Dr Goh Jin Hian took a vault into the unknown.
In March 2011, when global economies were reeling from the aftermath of the Eurozone crisis, the general practitioner left a 14-year career in Singapore's healthcare industry to start oil and gas trading firm International Energy Group (IEG).
This journey eventually culminated in his appointment last July as the Chief Executive Officer of SGX-listed investment holding company, New Silkroutes Group Ltd (NSG).
"At that time, Europe was still in the throes of a crisis, and when I said I wanted to do something different headhunters told me I was crazy, and that only one-third of people who change jobs at a time like this would succeed. Even my own parents thought I was nuts," Goh recalled with a laugh.
