Although family offices have been around since the 1800s, they’ve only begun to flourish in recent years.

In hopes to attract business in the special administration of family offices, Invest HK (Invest Hong Kong) started up an independent office. FamilyOffice HK is to be set up in Admiralty, the central business district in Hong Kong, where it can efficiently serve its clients.
