The Award Ceremony

“We are deeply pleased and honored to receive this award,” said Dr. Nick Xiao, Vice President of Hywin Holdings and Chief Executive Officer of Hywin International. “As an asset manager serving global ultra-high-net-worth and institutional clients, Hywin has actively championed HKLPF as a competitive and enlightened structuring option for family offices, foundations, and endowments in Asia, Middle East, and Europe. Hywin’s institutional strengths in external asset management, alternatives funds, research, and fiduciary services have been fully deployed to support the HKLPF industry with excellent results.”

“Hywin Holdings has a deep and extensive franchise in Asia. We advise entrepreneurial clients on their growth journey and support leading families across wealth, health, and succession topics. Hywin sees HKLPFA as a beacon to global capital, investment managers, and innovators who increasingly find Hong Kong the perfect place to meet, engage, collaborate, and create value. Hywin will continue to work with HKLPFA across a wide range of exciting topics,” said Madame Wang Dian, Chief Executive Officer of Hywin Holdings.

“This award is a strong recognition of Hywin Holdings’ asset management expertise as well as our network among global families and private banks. Hywin has served as the ‘super-connector’ activating the dialogues between HKLPF managers and international investors, and inspired many conversations between Hong Kong’s private equity industry and innovative companies around the world. This award is an accolade of what we have achieved as a global asset manager, and as a proud member of Hong Kong’s financial community,” said Mr. Lawrence Lok, Chief Financial Officer of Hywin Holdings.

The HKLPFA is the industry association guiding and promoting the Limited Partnership Fund (LPF) regime in Hong Kong. It is also part of the financial services infrastructure underpinning Hong Kong’s role as a vibrant global financial center and the Asia-Pacific hub for alternative investments.

The Hywin Team

The HKLPFA works closely with the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission, Hong Kong Monetary Authority, InvestHK and other regulatory and governmental bodies to enhance Hong Kong’s private equity eco-system in which alternative managers work with institutional investors, family offices and a variety of service providers to connect global capital with Asia opportunities, and fund innovations and growth that create value for investors, shareholders, and the wider community.

Hywin has been a leading champion for HKLPFA in Greater China, Southeast Asia and the Middle East, and facilitated the conversations between HKLPF managers and the global private banking and family office sectors. In February 2023, Hywin International, the fully-owned Hong Kong subsidiary of Hywin Holdings, was elected as Vice Chair of the Association. On September 28, 2023, Hywin played host to the HKLPFA Annual General Meeting, which took place at Hywin International’s office.

Officials of the Hong Kong SAR Government, members of the Legislative Council, leading academics, and senior representatives of global institutions including UBS AG and Barclays Plc joined the event to congratulate the winners and interacted with members of the HKLPFA at panel discussions.

The Award Trophy

In the future, Hywin will continue to work with HKLPFA to promote Hong Kong as a competitive domicile for global alternatives managers and lead the discussions on how HKLPF can be the infrastructure supporting global family offices and entrepreneurs to implement their investments, succession planning, and philanthropic pursuits in Hong Kong and via Hong Kong.
