Lee Seng Wee, DUBC (simplified Chinese: 李成伟; traditional Chinese: 李成偉; pinyin: Lǐ Chéngwěi; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Lí Sîng-uí; April 4, 1930 – August 7, 2015) was a Singaporean billionaire, having a net worth of US$1.6 billion in 2015, according to Forbes magazine.[1] The third son of the late Lee Kong Chian, he studied at the University of Toronto and the University of Western Ontario, where he received a master's degree. He was the chairman of Singapore's second-largest bank, Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation (OCBC), and orchestrated a S$2.4 billion takeover bid for Singapore's sixth-largest bank, Keppel Capital Holdings, in June 2001. In 2003, Lee stepped down as chairman and moved to a non-executive position.
On August 7, 2015, at the age of 85, Lee died of complications arising from a head injury sustained during a fall.[2]
