Mox Bank has appointed Anshul Sabherwal as its CEO, effective 10 November 2026.
He takes over the Standard Chartered-backed virtual bank shortly after it broke even in the first quarter of 2026 and stayed profitable through the first half of the year.
Sabherwal succeeds Barbaros Uygun, who stepped down after five years as Mox CEO.
Sabherwal becomes Mox’s third CEO since its launch in September 2020, following Deniz Güven and Barbaros Uygun.
He joins from Standard Chartered Hong Kong, where he was Head of Products (Credit Cards and Personal Loans) and Payment.
Sabherwal has more than two decades of consumer banking experience, according to Mox.
At Standard Chartered, he scaled the bank’s credit cards and personal loans business and managed strategic partnerships in Hong Kong, the group’s largest market.
Before that, he held senior roles at Citi in Taiwan and Poland.
Under Uygun, Mox grew its customer base fivefold to 800,000, strengthened its core capabilities and exported its technology stack to help build Trust Bank in Singapore.
“Mox is well-positioned to accelerate growth and achieve its ambition of making wealth management accessible to customers,”
said Anshul Sabherwal, CEO, Mox Bank.
