Committee of 100 Chairman Dominic Ng, East West Bank Chairman and CEO, was honored with the Individual Eddy Award on November 3 for his leadership in regional economic development by the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation (LAEDC).

LAEDC CEO Bill Allen presented the award to Ng and paid tribute to his significant contributions to spurring Los Angeles economic growth since he took over East West Bank in 1991: “East West represents significant capital and investment in Los Angeles County’s local economy and infrastructure."

"East West continues to expand its business in the U.S. and in Greater China—serving as a bridge between these markets and playing an important role in the renewal of Los Angeles County’s economy and job markets.”

Ng, who guided East West’s transformation from a Chinese community savings and loan into a $21 billion international commercial bank while playing a major role in Los Angeles cultural and civic institutions, said, “As both a resident and business leader in Los Angeles County, supporting and promoting the economic well-being of the region is my privilege and responsibility.”
