A Deloitte study found that the number of single-family offices in the city rose 25 per cent over the past two years to about 3,384 by the end of 2025. Fong said European families were expected to contribute to the next phase of growth.<\/p>\n<p datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1\">\u201cWe also maintain close ties with European families. Several Italian families travelled to Hong Kong to attend the Wealth for Good in Hong Kong Summit 2026 in March and subsequently engaged in in-depth strategic dialogues with us, during which they expressed strong interest in investing in Hong Kong,\u201d Fong said in a written interview with the South China Morning Post.<\/p>\n<p datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1\">\u201cFor European families seeking new growth momentum, Hong Kong offers something that has become remarkably rare: certainty, resilience, stability, innovation and opportunity in a single jurisdiction,\u201d he said. \u201cHong Kong also functions as a bridge. European families can directly link their existing businesses and family offices to the opportunities across Asia through Hong Kong.\u201d<\/p>\n<p datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1\">Government promotion efforts, including European roadshows led by Financial Secretary Paul Chan Mo-po and InvestHK officials, have helped raise Hong Kong\u2019s profile among wealthy European families.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Around 30 European family offices have expressed interest in establishing operations in Hong Kong, drawn by the city\u2019s&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":535814,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[174],"tags":[289,69134,79171,79,381,179,18,1015,21357,2220,43021,42299,4202,19,170951,17,8820,230359,2423,107],"class_list":["post-535813","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-economy","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-axa","tag-boston-consulting-group","tag-business","tag-china","tag-economy","tag-eire","tag-europe","tag-financial-secretary-paul-chan-mo-po","tag-france","tag-greater-bay-area","tag-greater-china","tag-hong-kong","tag-ie","tag-investhk","tag-ireland","tag-middle-east","tag-orientis","tag-switzerland","tag-us"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/116752519459503687","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535813","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=535813"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535813\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/535814"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=535813"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=535813"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=535813"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
