Grab Philippines has a new Philippines head effective Oct. 15, Grace Vera Cruz, who will replace Brian Cu, the Souhteast Asian super app said Thursday. Vera Cruz will look for synergies in Grab's businesses -- transport, food and deliveries.

Vera Cruz worked for 15 years in different companies, most recently as managing director of investment firm Seawood Resources. She also held key positions in McKinsey & Co., CLSA Exchange Capital and Shell, Grab said.
