Hong Kong Tops 2,700 Family Offices After Adding 200 in 2025
3 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · May 12
Summary
More than 2,700 single-family offices now operate in Hong Kong, with the city surpassing its official target ahead of schedule after adding over 200 in 2025.
Tax concessions and dedicated government initiatives accelerated that growth and set up a new “Family Office 2.0” phase aimed at cementing Hong Kong as a hub for ultra-wealthy global capital.
About 29% of roughly 150 family offices preparing to establish or expand in Hong Kong as of April 2025 came from Europe, the Americas and the Middle East, broadening a base long dominated by Greater China wealth.
More institutional family offices are also reshaping the market, bringing formal boards, professional CIOs and tighter risk controls while leaning on Hong Kong’s deep markets and more than 70 of the world’s top 100 banks.
