Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services has appointed S&P veteran Suzanne Smith as managing director of its ratings business in South and Southeast Asia. She will lead the credit ratings analytical teams based in Mumbai and Singapore, covering all credits, including sovereigns, corporates and financial institutions in the region.

Smith has worked for the vendor for 13 years and was recently relocated to Mumbai from New York where she held senior managerial and analytical positions in project finance, energy and utility ratings and risk management for financial institutions. The vendor hopes she will bring both a global and regional credit perspective to her new leadership role, including strong knowledge of Asian markets, especially Greater China where she was based for several years.
