About Me

Lin Chen-hai built his fortune by developing affordable housing for Taiwan's middle class through his privately held Pau Jar Group. An early foray overseas also landed Lin in the middle of another hot growth story - the real estate market in Australia. In 2018, Lin swooped up stakes in China Bills Finance, Taishin and SinoPac, sending a shudder up the spine of Taiwan's sleepy financial establishment. He also acquired stakes in the listed Far Eastern Department Stores and castings supplier Yeong Guan group. In 2020, through his TSE Foundation, Lin established the Taipei School of Economics and Political Science at the National Tsing Hua University.
