In recent years, as the global wealth management landscape has continued to evolve, family offices have become a key vehicle for wealth inheritance. Leveraging its strengths as an international financial centre, a well-developed professional ecosystem and its strategic location, Hong Kong is emerging as a major hub for the development of family offices in Asia. Recent data shows that the number of single family offices in Hong Kong has surpassed 3,300, more than half of which have assets under management exceeding US$51 million, further cementing Hong Kong’s position as Asia’s leading family office hub. Against this rapid growth, nearly 300 political and business leaders, wealth management experts, and industry representatives gathered to discuss what lies ahead for the sector.

Hong Kong Fiduciary Association Limited invited senior government officials including The Honourable Christopher Hui, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, and also Tan Sri Dato Sri Ong Tee Keat, Former Minister of Transport, Malaysia and President of Belt and Road Initiative Caucus for Asia Pacific (BRICAP), to attend our summit and deliver keynote speeches for us.
