Family business, once synonymous with mom and pop stores, has over the decades witnessed rapid growth and has become associated with major multi-million-valued names and labels across the globe. Equally significant is the evolution of Family Offices - curators of wealth for ultra-high net worth families - which have branched into a range of professional financial services encompassing such activities as private investments to charitable giving. Such developments, accompanied by an increase of high-net worth individuals from 3.3 million in 2010 to 6.1 million in 2018 in Asia Pacific alone, have given rise to a private finance boom.
Our distinguished line-up of speakers in the first of a 3-part webinar series will explore the prospects of the development of family offices in Hong Kong and Mainland China, as well as the changing role, structure and function of Family Offices and their growth and expansion in Hong Kong and the Mainland.
