The Wealth for Good in Hong Kong Summit, co-organised by the Financial Services & the Treasury Bureau and Invest Hong Kong, will be held next Tuesday, the Government announced today.

Under the theme “Building Lasting Legacies”, this year’s summit highlights the wave brought by the continuous growth of family office assets and generational wealth transition in recent years. The Government said that the summit, in addition to serving as an exchange platform for family office decision-makers and successors around the world, will also be an occasion for participants to experience how Hong Kong leverages its solid financial foundation to facilitate wealth succession and value appreciation.

This year’s summit will showcase Hong Kong’s strengths and potential through three core themes, namely “Strategic Asset Management for Family Legacy”, “Cultural Value Foundation for a Thriving Market”, and “Smart Tech Innovation Driving Capital Appreciation”. Heavyweight speakers will share their visionary thinking on the future of the family office ecosystem. A special fireside chat will also explore how sports and philanthropy can work together to create value for society.

Secretary for Financial Services & the Treasury Christopher Hui said: “The global landscape is evolving fast these days with geopolitics getting more complex. There has never been a better time for hosting the summit than now to give family offices looking for diversified allocation and risk dispersion an occasion to connect with each other and explore opportunities.”

Noting that the summit is a flagship event to display to the global wealth owners Hong Kong’s unique advantages, Mr Hui added that the Government will continue to consolidate the city's leading position as a family wealth hub in the Asia-Pacific region, positioning it as the most preferred platform for ultra-high-net-worth families worldwide to manage their cross-border wealth.

Beyond the Wealth for Good in Hong Kong Summit, the Milken Institute will host the Global Investors’ Symposium next Monday, while Bloomberg LP will stage the Family Office Forum next Wednesday, focusing on wealth management and global investment trends.
