Estate, succession and legacy planning and solutions are of increasing importance across Asia, where wealth management practices, professionalism and structures are expanding and improving apace. Moreover, the founder generations are ageing, and the second generation and also the third generations, (often back from overseas armed with their Western educations and perspectives) are inheriting vast investment wealth and taking control of numerous family enterprises. The mission for the panel of experts at the Hubbis Digital Dialogue of November 23 will be to highlight the key trends taking place and to articulate how estate and wealth structuring is developing to help these HNW and UHNW families plan appropriately for their collective futures.
There are some fascinating developments that will facilitate a more active wealth structuring and estate planning market in Asia, and in order for wealth management to live up to its potential, there is no doubt that both the availability and the quality of advice on investments, wealth structuring, and estate planning must further improve.
Indeed, this is happening - there is a growing emphasis on both the professionalisation and related expansion of the products and solutions the wealth industry can offer in order to keep their private clients engaged and to retain their client relationships amongst the next generations of clients. This is also entirely true for the lawyers, consultants and fiduciary service providers who help these families articulate and execute their wealth structuring and succession planning objectives.
As well all know, approaching private clients on matters of wealth structuring and estate planning is difficult anywhere in the world, and perhaps especially tricky in culturally sensitive regions such as Asia. Accordingly, on November 23, we will assemble a panel of genuine experts who truly understand these markets and the client base.
They will review the state of the wealth management industry, and in particular, the evolution of carefully planned and well-executed wealth, estate and succession planning and structuring, all from the perspective of the engagement with the client base and the nurturing of the right types of discussions around these important subjects.
The mission is to help unravel the nuances of the right approaches, and how the wealth industry and associated advisors can encourage private clients in the region to adopt the best products, solutions and structures to safeguard and build their investible wealth in their lifetimes as well as to help facilitate the transition of their estates to their loved ones later on.
They will also look carefully at the regulatory infrastructure and environments in the region, to determine what liberalisation is taking place that will help more of the advice and solutions to be given, and then expedited within these regions. And they will analyse what talent, experience and expertise are required in the region, as well as how the client-facing advisors and professionals should most effectively approach and communicate with these clients.
These are some of the key topics that could be addressed in the panel discussion:
- How are HNW and UHNW business founders, patriarchs, matriarchs and their families nowadays handling their estate, succession and legacy planning?
- Is the wealth management industry paying sufficient attention to these needs and elevating their skills and offering to cater to current and expected needs and expectations?
- What roles do family and business governance play in these plans?
- What role should or could the single-family office play in robust, forward-looking wealth & estate planning?
- In a more global world, how can the wealth advisory community deliver advice and structures across multiple jurisdictions?
- How closely involved should the second and third generations be in this estate and succession planning, and how can advisors and specialists help draw the founders and the younger generations together?
- What are the current trends in terms of trust structures, and is this a significant growth area in the future?
- Is the region’s fiduciary services ecosystem expanding well, or is there much more to be done in this regard?
- How do families choose the right trustees, and how do they work effectively with them?
- How can life insurance solutions work alongside effective estate and legacy planning, and what solutions are popular or increasing in prominence?
- Which jurisdictions do private clients prefer to utilise for their wealth planning, trust structures and Insurance? Why?
