Mountain View, California, United States, December 5, 2024 – Arta Finance, a digital wealth platform transforming the way people grow, protect, and enjoy their wealth, has announced the appointment of Melissa-Ann Chan as Chief Marketing Officer (CMO). In her new role, Chan will oversee global marketing, brand and advertising strategy, and go-to-market execution, leading the company’s vision by spearheading initiatives across brand positioning, growth, client experience, and market expansion.
This announcement comes during a pivotal period of growth for Arta Finance. Following a successful launch in the U.S. last year—during which the platform onboarded thousands of clients and grew its assets under management (AUM) to hundreds of millions of dollars—Arta has extended its reach globally with a recent launch in Singapore. By targeting accredited investors and wealth managers in Singapore, Arta continues to establish itself as a global leader in digital wealth management.
Caesar Sengupta, co-founder and CEO of Arta Finance, remarked, “After two years of building out the Arta platform, including successful US and international launches, and the subsequent rapid growth of Arta’s client base and AUM, we continue to build our incredible team and formalize various roles as we move from the start-up phase to fast-growing wealth management platform. As part of this process, I am delighted that Mel has agreed to take on the position of CMO, a role that she has effectively been doing for the past two years, leading a talented team of marketing and creative professionals who have already helped to change the conversation around the future of wealth management.”
Chan joined Arta Finance at its inception after spending over 14 years at Google in various market and product leadership roles across Silicon Valley, Singapore, and Sydney. During her tenure, she played a pivotal role in building and scaling Google Pay, which now serves hundreds of millions of global users. She also drove the go-to-market strategy for several of Google’s programmatic advertising platforms and spearheaded the technology roadmap for its retail locations in the U.S. and Europe.
Melissa-Ann Chan, CMO of Arta Finance, said, “I’m deeply grateful to our executive team and the board, and the extraordinary people at Arta in Singapore and Silicon Valley for their trust and support. Arta represents a step-change in private wealth management—one that’s built from the ground up to unite advanced AI and technology with the sophistication of private banking. Over the last three years, we’ve expanded access to the financial opportunities once limited to the ultra-wealthy. Arta’s growth indicates our story inspires a new generation of investors worldwide. I’m honored to step into the CMO role at such a pivotal moment for the company.”
Founded by ex-Google executives, Arta Finance is a digital wealth platform designed to democratize access to the financial tools and products typically reserved for the ultra-wealthy. The company leverages cutting-edge AI, technology infrastructure, and expert support to enable members to achieve their financial goals.

In October 2024, Arta welcomed Ralph Hamers, former CEO of UBS and ING, as an external senior advisor to provide strategic guidance as the company expands globally. Additionally, Arta launched its new B2B offering, a “wealth-as-a-service” platform designed to empower partner banks to deliver innovative wealth management products and services. Wio Invest, based in Abu Dhabi, became the first financial institution to integrate Arta’s platform, highlighting its global impact.
