Testimonials

"As an offshore lawyer specializing in fiduciary solutions from Hong Kong since the 1990s, in my view the Asia Outbound series is one of the best for building networks and reputation among the clients with whom we are keen to work. For local delegates it provides a valuable learning insight into the “new world” of sophisticated offshore structuring, and an opportunity to meet leading professionals first hand."
- Leon Mao
Former Head of Trusts & Offshore Legal Counsel
at First Advisory Group
"I think this is the most important summit in the calendar. It's a great opportunity for Harneys as a BVI and Cayman law firm because we are meeting people who have clients who have very particular needs of investing their money outbound. It's the networking opportunities and meeting people that is the beauty of this conference. Everyone is here in the knowledge that they should network and it's a very fruitful place for networking. Very slick and well-organized operations and we’ve been very impressed."
- Ian Mann
Managing Partner at Harneys
"The British Virgin Islands, as a leading offshore jurisdiction, has been working with Asia Outbound to do all our marketing in China since 2011. We have been their top level sponsors of all the well known Asia Outbound Summits and they have consistently delivered the top delegates at these well-organized events. We have had a great experience and always look forward to working with their great team on future projects/events."
- C. Maritza Mercer
Former Chief Operating Officer

Why China?

Why you should attend the 2023 Asia Outbound Summit Series

Since the inception of the Asia Outbound Summit series in 2010, China’s HNWI, investment groups, and corporations have developed an ever-increasing need for sophisticated international wealth, immigration tax and asset planning services. This demand, coupled with increasing pressure from local and international authorities for transparency has created a massive gap in traditional offshore planning for local practitioners.

Why China?

  • The total number of HNWIs in China is expected to reach 5.6 million by 2023. This makes China the world’s second largest HNWI population, only behind the USA. (CreditSuisse World Wealth Report)
  • An estimated 2 million HNWIs will seek investment migration solutions. China is a market that no investment migration provider can overlook (Hurun Report, CreditSuisse World Wealth Report extrapolation)
  • Currently, Chinese nationals hold USD 1.4 trillion in offshore assets, with an estimated increase to 3 trillion by 2023. Overseas banks and wealth managers stand to make a windfall if they position themselves correctly (CMB-Bain China Wealth Survey, CreditSuisse World Wealth Report)
  • -China is the second largest source of foreign direct investment globally with USD 1.8 trillion already invested in foreign companies. (World Bank)
  • -65% of Chinese HNWIs are in progress or will be in progress of planning wealth inheritance within the next 1 to 3 years. (CMB-Bain China HNWI Survey)
