Coherent Capital Advisors (CCA) has appointed former Manulife Asia executive John Brisco as its chief executive officer. He is based in Hong Kong.

Alongside his role as CEO, Brisco will join co-founders Michael Chan and Fred Ngan on the Coherent Group management team.

Before being hired by CCA, Brisco was chief information officer and chief operations officer of Manulife Asia, where he made significant contributions to the Canadian insurer’s growth in Asia. He has also worked for QBE Insurance and EY previously.
