Betty Liu

Bloomberg Television anchor Betty Liu has left the organization after 10 years.

On LinkedIn, Liu wrote, “Pursuing that dream has now led me to a new and exciting opportunity. While I’m not quite ready to share the details yet, I wanted all of you here to know about this first.”

Liu co-anchored “Bloomberg Daybreak Asia” from Bloomberg Television’s headquarters in New York and the “Bloomberg Daybreak Australia.”

Before joining Bloomberg Television in 2007, Liu was an anchor for CNBC Asia based in Hong Kong. Prior to that, she was the Atlanta bureau chief for the Financial Times where she covered a wide variety of topics from business to civil rights.

Earlier in her career, Liu was the Taiwan bureau chief for Dow Jones Newswires and a Hong Kong-based regional correspondent for the newswire. In 1997, she received a Dow Jones Newswires Award for her coverage of the Asian financial crisis.

Liu was born in Hong Kong and graduated from the University of Pennsylvania magna cum laude in English. She is the author of “Work Smarts: What CEOs Say You Need to Know to Get Ahead.”
