Marc Cormack-Bissett
Director, Head of Operations - Asia
Having started with Law Deb in September 2007, I relocated to Hong Kong in August 2018 to enhance corporate governance and have overall responsibility for operational aspects of the Hong Kong office.
My experience comes from over thirteen years as a Chartered Certified Accountant and I have extensive experience of acting as Company Secretary and holding Independent Directorships of entities in England, the Channel Islands, Hong Kong, and in the Cayman Islands. Further, I have specialised in accounting for Special Purpose Vehicles (“SPVs”) of structured financing transactions and have a proven track record being responsible for transaction management of Employee Share Trusts, Escrows, Bonds, Loans and other related transactions.
I have been the Group Money Laundering Reporting Officer, and now hold this Office in Hong Kong, providing valuable support to the Group MLRO and Head of Compliance.
I support and serve the Group Risk Committee, having previously been the Group Chief Risk Officer, a role I relinquished on moving to Hong Kong.
I am ACCA qualified and attained my Fellowship (FCCA) in 2012. I also hold an ICA Diploma in Anti Money Laundering (with merit) from ICA/University of Manchester.
When not in the office, I can be found on one of Hong Kong’s many hiking trails or beaches or dragon boat racing. I enjoy travelling and love uncovering a new and hidden culinary gem.
