A changing regulatory environment, coupled with more flexible funds vehicles to accommodate rising investor expectations, has led to strong growth in the investment funds market in Asia over the last several years. The thriving Asian markets will continue to provide ample opportunities for fund managers looking to base their operations and invest in the region.
In this seminar, our speakers will provide a market overview of the asset management developments and opportunities in Asia's major international financial hubs – Hong Kong, Singapore and Tokyo. We will discuss the next steps for Singapore's corporate fund vehicle, the Variable Capital Company (VCC 2.0), which has quickly gained popularity when structuring investment funds. For Japan, we will provide an update on the laws and regulations governing capital-raising activities in Japan as well as a market update regarding the ongoing efforts of the Japan regulators to bring foreign asset managers to Japan. As one of the key financial markets in the world, Hong Kong is an ideal jurisdiction for fund managers to establish its regional hub, especially when they wish to target the Greater China market. In this session, we will discuss recent regulatory updates in Hong Kong.
Registration will start at 4.30PM (HKT), with the presentation starting at 5.00PM (HKT), followed by a cocktail reception from 6.00PM (HKT).
