Two years ago , government unveiled eight measures to promote family offices in Hong Kong .

Measures included tax incentives, revamped investment-migration scheme, streamlined rules for charitable foundations and the establishment of the Hong Kong Academy for Wealth Legacy.

All but one of the eight measures has yet to be implemented: an art storage facility at Hong Kong International Airport .

For most of March , the average daily stock market turnover reached HK$296 billion in Hong Kong , more than double the average in the year-earlier period.

Hong Kong government's efforts to lure international investors had drawn interest from "some overseas family offices and Middle Eastern investors" in fundraising exercises of listed companies like BYD .

Hong Kong will overtake Switzerland by 2027 as the world's number one hub for cross-border wealth management, according to estimates from Boston Consulting Group .

" Hong Kong will not only sustain its status as Asia 's premier family office hub, but also redefine its role in shaping the future of global wealth management," Hui said.
