Executives continue to "change formations," and the trillion-yuan Tianhong Fund "parachutes" in high-caliber insurance talent

Tianhong Asset Management, ranked among the top in the industry, has once again appointed a "new executive."

On September 20, Tianhong Asset Management announced that Liu Rongkui has stepped down as Chief Information Officer due to work reasons and will take on another position; Chi Zhe has been appointed as Deputy General Manager and Chief Information Officer of Tianhong Asset Management.

According to his resume, Chi Zhe has previously worked at several insurance asset management institutions, which is quite different from the experience of his "predecessor" Liu Rongkui.

Who is Chi Zhe?

Public information shows that Chi Zhe has been working in the financial industry for a long time and is likely a member of the post-70s generation.

He entered the financial industry in the early 2000s, serving as a technical manager at the Computer Network Center of Shenwan Hongyuan Securities from March 2002 to April 2006. From May 2006 to August 2008, he worked as a senior consultant in the Financial Services Department of Accenture (China) Co., Ltd.

Subsequently, he joined an insurance asset management institution, serving as Executive General Manager of the Technology Innovation Center at Ping An Asset Management from September 2008 to June 2020; from July 2020 to August 2025, he was Deputy General Manager and Chief Technology Officer at Taikang Asset Management. His appointment as Deputy General Manager and Chief Information Officer at Tianhong should be considered "a familiar role."

Who was the predecessor?

Chi Zhe's predecessor, Liu Rongkui, stepped down as Chief Information Officer due to work reasons, and the announcement indicated he would take on another position.

Liu Rongkui's experience mainly comes from large internet companies, more specifically from "Alibaba" affiliated enterprises.

Liu Rongkui has served as a senior technical expert in the Technical Department of the Basic Platform at Beijing Haochao E-commerce Co., Ltd. (formerly Beijing Taobao Technology Co., Ltd.), Director of the Technology R&D Department at Beijing Sidetai Technology Development Co., Ltd., and Senior Technical Director of the Main Mall Business Department at Beijing Meiri Yousuan E-commerce Co., Ltd. He joined Tianhong Asset Management in July 2022.

Continuous Executive Adjustments

Additionally, Chi Zhe's "appearance" signifies that a new generation of executives at Tianhong Asset Management is further "taking shape."

Since Gao Yang took over as General Manager of Tianhong Asset Management at the end of December 2023, the board of directors and executive team of Tianhong have undergone at least four changes.

In March 2024, Nie Tingjin was appointed as Deputy General Manager of Tianhong Asset Management. He and Gao Yang had previously worked together at Bosera Asset Management, which is considered a reunion of "old Bosera" personnel.

In November 2024, Han Xinyi stepped down as Chairman due to work reasons, and Huang Chenli was appointed as Chairman. The latter still comes from Ant Group.

In December 2024, Deputy General Manager Xiong Jun retired.

The latest change is Chi Zhe joining the executive team of Tianhong Asset Management.

The latest recruitment prospectus shows that the executive team of Tianhong Asset Management includes General Manager Gao Yang, Deputy General Managers Chen Gang, Zhou Xiaoming, Chang Yong, Nie Tingjin, Inspector General Tong Jianlin, and Financial Responsible Person Ma Wenhui. Of course, it now also includes Deputy General Manager and Chief Information Officer Chi Zhe.

Wind data shows that as of mid-2025, the total public offering scale of Tianhong Asset Management is close to 1.29 trillion yuan, with non-monetary scale nearing 435.6 billion yuan Risk Warning and Disclaimer
