Overview
The launch of new research from WealthBriefingAsia and UBS casting fresh light on the vibrant external asset manager market in Asia will be marked by a series of high profile events in the region.
We are holding two events in Hong Kong on 2nd June or Singapore on 9th June where industry experts, including senior managers from UBS and the report’s authors will share the findings of this insightful research. They will also answer your questions concerning the future and structure of the Asian wealth management market.
The Independent Asset Management landscape in Asia is currently dominated by Two Cities – Hong Kong and Singapore – but according to the new research the focus of wealth management is set to quickly expand to other regional centres such as Thailand, The Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam and Indonesia.
Save the date and register now for this must attend event for everyone interested in the future of wealth management for the Independent Asset Manager segment in Asia.
On 2nd June the Hong Kong breakfast briefing will be hosted at the Pool Room at the Grand Hyatt and the Singapore breakfast briefing will be hosted on 9th June at the Westin Hotel, Marina View.
