Koo is the honorary chairman of Chailease Holding, an equipment-leasing outfit operating in Taiwan, mainland China and Southeast Asia.

Chailease comprises 60 companies with 10,000 employees. It operates throughout China and in 12 other countries.

The first generation of Koos made their fortune in camphor, salt, sugar, and land. Koo's father, financier Jeffrey Koo, Sr., who died in 2012, was dubbed the "Father of the Credit Card" in Taiwan.
