GigaMedia Limited has appointed Dirk Chen as chief financial officer, effective immediately.

 

Chen brings extensive financial leadership experience in international business to GigaMedia and an excellent record of delivering corporate growth and strong financial performance.

 

During a 30-year career with Taiwan-based Chailease Finance, a leading financial firm, Dirk served the company in different key roles, including senior advisor, president and chief financial officer, and successfully led several important initiatives.

 

He spearheaded growth in China, tripling the firm's revenues in that market. Following the 2008 financial crisis, he directed a turnaround team at the firm's New York operations, developing solutions that contributed to significant improvements in financial performance.

 

Dirk also served as the chief financial officer of the publicly listed firm Financial One Corp. in Singapore and is experienced in U.S. GAAP.

 

Chen has been with GigaMedia as a board member and special advisor since November 2011. He succeeds Quincy Tang, who will assume Chen's previous role as special advisor to GigaMedia.
