What's On

The global competition to attract family offices is heating up.

Hong Kong has rolled out the red carpet to welcome family offices, and its endeavors to lure foreign capital are yielding positive results. A recent study estimates that the city was home to around 2,700 single-family offices last year, with about one-third of them managing assets of at least US$100 million.

What does the future hold for family offices in Hong Kong?

Join us on 27 May as Jason Fong, Global Head of Family Office at Invest Hong Kong, and Paul Ho, Financial Services Tax Partner at Ernst & Young, delve into the vibrant family office landscape in Hong Kong. Gain valuable insights into the future prospects and emerging trends that are shaping the family office sector in the city.
