"We will continue to make investments in EY people and solutions, so as to bring the best of the EY organisation to clients," Liew Nam Soon adds.

"We are in a transformative age where leaders are adapting to a new landscape by innovating their business model, elevating their customer and workforce experiences, and finding new ways to leverage data and technology," Gaurav says.

"How can organisations balance the three imperatives of putting humans at the centre, leveraging technology at speed and enabling innovation at scale as they transform to realise long-term value for their people, business and society as a whole?

"I'm excited to join EY, a truly multidisciplinary professional services organisation, and work with talented teams and [an] ecosystem of partners to serve clients, while at the same time, propel EY to the next stage of growth."
