Chris Murck is CEO APCO Asia. He will focus on two themes: the remarkable progress made by Indonesia in recent years, largely unrecognized by the outside world; and the growing economic and political influence of China with which ASEAN countries are increasingly comfortable.

Chris is a recognized expert in this area. His experience in Asia spans a quarter of a century. He has recently been nominated to the Board of Directors of Bank of Shanghai by the International Finance Corporation, part of the World Bank Group. Chris joined APCO in June 2001 after five years in Beijing as Managing Director and Senior Country Officer of The Chase Manhattan Bank. He served two terms as Chairman of the American Chamber of Commerce in China in 2002-03.

Chris was previously based in Taipei, where he ran Chase and its predecessor institutions’ Taiwan operations from 1991 to 1996 and was Chairman of the American Chamber of Commerce for 1995 and 1996. From 1980 to 1991, he worked in the international division of Manufacturers Hanover Trust Company in New York, with responsibility for different countries in the Asia Pacific region, including Japan, Hong Kong and Australia.

Chris graduated from Yale and then taught for two years at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He subsequently took a doctorate in East Asian Studies at Princeton, and was a Mellon Fellow at Columbia University before becoming a banker. During his doctoral research, he spent two years as a Research Fellow at the University of Kyoto in Japan. He is a current trustee and former Chair of the Yale-China Association. Chris speaks and reads Chinese.
