ONG Benedict - Candidate profile
My principal place of residence is not in the Dunedin City Council area. I am also standing for Council - At Large.
Born in Dunedin, I am a finance expert and former Vice-President level international private banker and former investment banker at global banks in Singapore, and hold a Bachelor of Commerce in Finance from the University of New South Wales Sydney. I bring a leadership career built on reducing cost wastage, optimizing debt to reduce interest costs, and driving innovative economic decisions for growth.
I will bring bold economic leadership to grow jobs and boost wages, enable no rate rises through first-of-its-kind financial innovation, and a thorough focus on reducing cost wastage. Economic leadership and growth not only directly supports our families and businesses, it amplifies Dunedin’s voice and delivers the solutions our community needs.
I’m running for Mayor with an unwavering commitment to serve. This will be my sole professional undertaking, and I will work relentlessly, every single day, to deliver results — for you, your family, our future. www.benong.nz
