Raffles Family Office Expands China Growth
The multi-family office, which operates from a number of cities in Asia, has expanded its coverage of the Greater China market.
Raffles
Family Office has appointed former Deutsche Bank senior
figure Kevin King as managing director, head of greater
China.
King has almost 20 years’ experience working with Chinese
business founders. King was market head for China at Deutsche
Bank International Private Bank. Previously, he was head of
wealth management, China Market at BNP Paribas. He also spent 10
years with Citi Private Bank before joining BNP. He will report
to Chi-man Kwan, group CEO and RFO’s founder, and be based in
Hong Kong.
“With a demonstrated history of delivering exceptional financial
solutions and fostering strong client relationships, Kevin’s
expertise aligns seamlessly with our commitment to providing
tailored and strategic financial services. We are confident that
his insights will be invaluable,” Kwan said.
King said: “The vital role family offices play in mainland China,
both as investment vehicles and investors, is resonating with
undeniable influence. As a result of the nationwide emergence of
a burgeoning number of ultra-high net worth families, these
entities have the capacity to shape not only the legacy of the
families but also exert a substantial impact on the broader
economy.”
King graduated with a bachelor of business administration in
accounting and finance (first class honours) from The Hong Kong
University of Science and Technology in 2002.
In other appointments, Raffles Family Office recently named Zann
Kwan as chief investment officer and managing partner of Revo
Digital Family Office. It also appointed Rizal Wijono as a member
of the Independent Advisory Board. The firm, which is based in
Hong Kong, has branch offices in centres including Singapore,
Shanghai, Beijing and Taipei.
