2021: Hong Kong The Financial Colossus
Hong Kong is one of the richest cities on the planet, with the total wealth of its most prominent families estimated by the Financial Services Development Council to be more than US$1,179 billion.
Some of the city’s best-known tycoons are well into their nineties. A sizeable amount of family capital may soon be transferred to their children and grandchildren, so making a solid plan of succession has become a top priority. It is critical to take action without delay, and to do so with a life insurance partner who is both supremely professional and utterly trustworthy.
Unleashing the Value of Life Insurance
The benefits of life insurance—predictability, flexibility, liquidity—can rank among the most valuable assets in an individual’s portfolio. Life insurance comes with two core values: it is a source of passive income, resisting economic headwinds and providing income continuity, so non-liquid assets do not have to be relinquished during times of duress; and it is the keystone of the bridge that is legacy planning. This is especially important while the largest intergenerational wealth transfer of recent times is taking place.
