Hong Kong tops Switzerland as the world's biggest cross-border wealth hub

Hong Kong has overtaken Switzerland to become the world’s largest cross-border wealth hub, with about $2.9 trillion of international assets in 2025—roughly 60% from mainland China. The Boston Consulting Group expects the gap to widen to nearly $600 billion by 2030 as Asian fortunes grow. The shift reflects Hong Kong’s revived equity markets, China’s manufacturing strength, and a broader move by wealthy clients to diversify assets across jurisdictions to hedge geopolitical risks. Banks are expanding booking operations in HK and Singapore, while Switzerland faces regulatory pressures and questions about defending its position; Dubai is rising as a regional bridge, though cross-border wealth there remains smaller than Hong Kong or Switzerland.

From Kitchen Table to a $2B Brand: Poppi Founders’ Next Chapter

Allison and Stephen Ellsworth turned a home-made remedy into Poppi, grew it to over $500M in annual sales, and sold it to PepsiCo for about $1.95B. Bootstrapping with credit cards, loans, and a Shark Tank investment helped scale and rebrand, while COVID forced a $25M capital raise; now they manage their windfall by prioritizing family and experiences and are planning a new venture while mentoring other entrepreneurs.

Generational Wealth Preserved: Four Habits of the Ultra-Wealthy

In an as-told-to interview, Rob Mallernee, CEO of Eton Solutions and a longtime adviser to ultra‑high‑net‑worth families, says the four habits that keep wealth lasting are: cultivate a purpose-driven family culture so wealth is stewarded rather than owed, treat tax planning as an ongoing, strategic process with tax-efficient investments, buy-and-hold core assets to reduce taxes and costs (and borrow against holdings rather than selling), and stay frugal by scrutinizing even small expenses to protect wealth across generations.

Stock Gifts Could Amplify Tax Benefits in Trump Accounts

Stock Gifts Could Amplify Tax Benefits in Trump Accounts

The Trump administration is weighing allowing stock donations to "Trump Accounts" for American children, a move that could let donors avoid capital gains taxes on appreciated shares while deducting their value, potentially driving more high‑net‑worth gifts. Whether this would require new legislation or can be done via Treasury guidance is unclear, and experts are divided. While attractive to ultra‑rich donors, it may not be a game‑changer and could face Congressional hurdles; considerations include AGI deduction caps and the potential impact on estate taxes.

AI Advice in Law: Privilege at Risk as Clients Turn to Chatbots

AI Advice in Law: Privilege at Risk as Clients Turn to Chatbots

Lawyers warn high-net-worth clients increasingly rely on AI chatbots for legal guidance, which can produce incorrect or inappropriate tax and estate-planning ideas and may waive attorney‑client privilege when documents are uploaded to AI systems. The trend wastes lawyers’ time, erodes trust, raises data privacy concerns, and underscores that AI should inform questions—not replace personalized legal advice; firms are revising contracts to address these risks.

Billions in private-capital fees fuel wealth advisers' profits

A Financial Times analysis shows wealth advisers at banks and independent brokerages earned over $2 billion in servicing and placement fees from evergreen private-capital funds across 16 products since 2017, led by Blackstone Breit and Bcred, with typical fees around 0.25-0.85% annually plus about 0.5% placement and up to 3.5% commissions; critics say adviser incentives helped grow private-capital allocations, while banks defend fiduciary duty and say fees vary by fund, though some have faced outflows recently.

Women Enter Wealth Management in Higher Numbers, But Few Move Into Advisory Roles

Women Enter Wealth Management in Higher Numbers, But Few Move Into Advisory Roles

Fintrx’s study shows more young women are entering wealth management, but they remain underrepresented in revenue-generating client-advisory roles and top leadership. About 37.6% of registered professionals aged 20–30 are women, yet only ~20% of producing advisors in that group are women, with women also making up a small share of C-suite roles (around 21.5%). The trend coincides with rising female wealth and more women-founded advisory firms, highlighting the need for clearer pathways to ownership and executive positions.

Citi pursues private arbitration for harassment claim against wealth chief Sieg

Citigroup asked a Texas federal court to compel private arbitration of Julia Carreon’s sexual-harassment claim against wealth chief Andy Sieg, arguing the allegations are fabricated and that Citi’s employment-dispute practice supports arbitration; the move comes amid a 2022 law that limits arbitration for sexual-harassment claims, and Citi cites Carreon’s messages praising Sieg to challenge her accusations.

Fair pay for heirs: navigating compensation in ultra-rich family offices

Ultra-wealthy families increasingly bring millennial and Gen Z heirs into private investment firms, but pay is often contested—heirs may be underpaid due to loyalty or in some cases overpaid and stuck with golden handcuffs. Experts urge formal compensation structures, clearly defined roles, and written plans or committees to prevent resentment and disputes as family offices expand into more active investing.

Citigroup rides IB and wealth gains to a Q4 beat, sets 2026 NII targets

Citigroup beat Q4 expectations with adjusted EPS of $1.81 on revenue of $19.9B, led by strength in investment banking and wealth management, while a Russia exit-related charge and softer markets limited GAAP results. The bank sees 2026 net interest income ex-markets rising about 5-6% from 2025 (~$49.8B to ~$52.3B-$52.8B) and targets a 60% efficiency ratio, down from 65% in 2025. End-of-period loans rose to $752B and deposits to $1.40T.
