Rita Xiao Wenhui joined the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) upon graduation. There, she built her skills in finance and a head for details, before moving to Stirling Finance Limited to work as a consultant. Her focus has been on funds and pension systems on mainland China and in Hong Kong, an expertise that she can now share in a forthcoming book co-written with her boss. She talks to Wong Yat-hei.

What’s your academic background?
I have a first class honour’s BBA degree in finance from the City University of Hong Kong.

How do you start your day?
I start my daily work with a cup of tea, then I go through the finance sections of various papers to keep myself up to date. Then, I check my e-mail box and respond to queries from clients.
