Ms. Tan replaces Brian Ingram. A Russell spokesman in Seattle said Mr. Ingram left Russell on Nov. 30, with Ryan Fu, the Shanghai unit's deputy general manager and chief compliance officer, stepping in as acting president and general manager.
The spokesman had no further information regarding Mr. Ingram. Mr. Ingram couldn't be reached for comment.
