Deloitte celebrates the success of the Global Finance Forum held in Hong Kong

Organized by the Official Monetary and Financial Institutions Forum (OMFIF), the Global Finance Forum held in Hong Kong on 5 July 2023 has gathered more than 200 senior executives and key stakeholders from a highly influential group of leading asset owners, investment managers, policymakers, bankers and financial services providers.

Deloitte is proud to sponsor this important event in Hong Kong, which also marks the 30th anniversary of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), as we are committed to support the city to thrive as a financial center at the heart of global markets and as a unique, pivotal gateway between China and the world. In particular, 2023 represents a significant opportunity for a post-COVID-19 Hong Kong to reaffirm its top credentials as a global financial center.

During this full-day forum, over 40 speakers from the public and private sectors around the world discussed a range of hot topics including the role of Greater China in the global economy, opportunities in Hong Kong and Greater China for asset owners, the next stage of the GBA development and opportunities, FinTech and CBDC, green finance, Hong Kong as a global wealth management hub, and the emerging future of family offices in Asia.

Among the speakers, Deloitte China Vice Chair Patrick Yip spoke at the panel session titled “Unleashing Asia’s Wealth Potential: Navigating a New Era for Private Investors” and shared his views on the advantages of Hong Kong as the leading international hub for wealth management and family offices.

“Hong Kong is a major global financial center with a world-class capital market and professional infrastructure. The city is uniquely positioned to manage and facilitate cross-border transactions and investments in Asia. Hong Kong’s stock market, with a capitalization of HK$32.5 trillion as of May 2023, offers a wide array of investment opportunities for family offices and private investors. Hong Kong has a great story to tell and it needs to be told more often and more widely. I believe Hong Kong’s newly introduced family office regime is poised to succeed,” said Patrick.
