July 6, 2021

Juwai IQI has announced a new executive to its leadership team. The pan Asian proptech firm has named Standard Chartered and Salesforce veteran Haroon Anwar as Senior Vice President – Vietnam and Cambodia, where he will work with Juwai IQI’s executive team and the country management teams to support market expansion and sales. 

Juwai IQI Group Co-Founder and CEO Kashif Ansari said:

“Juwai IQI needs leaders like Haroon to help us expand in Southeast Asia. Vietnam is a core market for us and is already responsible for a significant share of revenue growth. With the help of leaders like Haroon, we expect to exponentially expand our domestic and cross-border business in Vietnam and the wider region.”

Anwar will focus on the major real estate developers and lenders while supporting new office openings, team membership, technology, and promotional campaigns. 

Anwar has three decades of technology and finance experience in Vietnam, Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore, and the UAE. He was at Standard Chartered for ten years, nine of which he was Managing Director in the ASEAN region and two years as General Director and CEO for the Hanoi Branch, his home city. 

Anwar was most recently at Techcombank, a leading bank in Vietnam where he held a senior position.

Ansari commented:

“We are confident that that the Juwai IQI is the model of the future for real estate. We expect to make very significant investments in our technology platform through 2025. This focus will accelerate growth and profitability. Having top-rated team members like Haroon on the ground in Vietnam and Cambodia will fully enable us to capture the value generated by this investment.”

Anwar’s other endeavors include senior roles at Salesforce Inc, BMO Financial Group, ABN AMRO, and Citibank. 

Juwai IQI Group Co-Founder and CEO Kashif Ansari said:

“Haroon is knowledgeable and passionate about building working partnerships that deliver significant benefits to both parties. He will work closely with our existing teams in Cambodia and Vietnam to increase our market coverage, expand our agent networks and identify targets for partnership or acquisition in the real estate and technology spaces.”

On the appointment, Anwar said:

“Juwai IQI is the fastest growing residential real estate technology business in Asia, and I am proud to join its senior team. Juwai IQI offers the most advanced real estate transaction-enabling technology, recruiting practices, and management and sales.”

The appointment comes a month after Juwai IQI announced rising legal star Emily Gebbett as the new General Counsel for the company.
