Baker McKenzie is excited to announce the 2025 Asia Pacific Wealth Management Symposium, taking place this year in Hong Kong and Singapore! This event is by invitation only and is designed for wealth management professionals, including trustees, wealth and estate planners, and private bankers who assist high-net-worth families with their asset management and succession planning.
This symposium will feature our Baker McKenzie lawyers from across Asia Pacific, Europe, and the US, ensuring diverse and insightful discussions on key issues, challenges, and opportunities relevant to family offices and private wealth-owning structures. During the symposium, our wealth management experts will discuss the latest and most significant trends and developments in Australia, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand, as well as in the UK and the US. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with our experts on current jurisdictional developments and gain valuable insights to navigate the evolving landscape of wealth management.
In addition to these discussions, it is noteworthy that today’s high-net-worth families are increasingly visionary about building family offices that are well integrated with their planning goals and multi-jurisdictional structures. To help clients navigate the intricacies of modern family office planning, including the choice of jurisdictions and vehicles, structures, and substance considerations, this symposium will feature a session on the unique opportunities of establishing and managing family offices in the region and beyond. Our experts will share insights in building best-in-class family office structures worldwide.
Furthermore, we will delve into the future of wealth management with our session on key wealth management trends and developments to watch in 2025 and beyond. Our speakers will consider the impact of geopolitical risks, sanctions in an uncertain world, global minimum taxes, and other factors on wealth management amidst significant change and instability. Building on these insights, our panel of experts will then explore how various trends and developments might unfold in several key jurisdictions, providing attendees with a comprehensive understanding of the evolving landscape.
