It was a full house at our recent briefing session on the New Capital Investment Entrant Scheme (CIES) where the InvestHK team provided a comprehensive overview and answered questions from our members.

Jason Fong, Global Head of FamilyOfficeHK, kicked off the session with a welcome speech highlighting recent trends in #familyoffices, and talked about the government’s initiatives and commitment to establishing Hong Kong as a leading family office hub.

During the presentation by Kenneth Tse, Tiffany Chan, and Andy Luk from the New CIES Team at InvestHK, the following key topics were covered:

• Overview of the New CIES Scheme: Understanding its criteria and procedures.
• Investment Requirements: Permissible investment assets and the assessment criteria.
• Portfolio Maintenance Requirements: Key obligations for investors and financial intermediaries.
• Frequently Asked Questions: Addressing common inquiries from stakeholders.

A special thank you to everyone who attended and engaged in the lively Q&A session, and to our member firm Citibank for generously providing the venue.
