期货和衍生品行业监管动态




                        A survey published today by the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC)
                   found that the asset and wealth management business (Note 1) in Hong Kong

                   recorded a 2% year-on-year increase in assets under management (AUM) to $35,546

                   billion (US$4,558 billion) (Note 2) as at the end of 2021. Net fund inflows during the

                   year reached $2,152 billion (US$277 billion), up 6% from 2020. The AUM of the

                   asset management and fund advisory business conducted by licensed corporations and

                   registered institutions increased 8% to $25,888 billion (US$3,320 billion).


                        “The survey findings underscore the core strengths of the asset and wealth

                   management industry in the fast-changing, challenging environment,” said Ms

                   Christina Choi, the SFC’s Executive Director of Investment Products. “The SFC will

                   continue to support the development of Hong Kong as a premier global asset and

                   wealth management centre and preferred fund domicile.”

                        Other highlights of the survey (Note 3) include:


                                 Assets held under trusts increased 5% to $4,719 billion (US$605

                           billion).


                                 The AUM of the private banking and private wealth management

                           business decreased 6% to $10,583 billion (US$1,357 billion). Respondents

                           reported that the decrease was mainly due to changes in the values of

                           underlying investments held by clients.


                                 Non-Hong Kong investors remained a major source of funding for

                           the asset and wealth management business, accounting for 65% of AUM.


                                 The total number of staff in the asset and wealth management

                           business increased 12% to 54,003.
