Entrepreneurs in Asia

Highlights

Family offices and external asset managers are booming in Asia, especially HK, which has become one of the most important players in the Private Wealth market.

Join this event to find out the latest cutting edge structuring techniques and approaches to advising Asian entrepreneurs. 

Structuring opportunities for 2nd and 3rd generation

In Europe, for the high-net-worth families, the wealth is already passed to 2nd and even 3rd generations (old money). In comparison in Asia, the settlors are relatively ‘young’. In recent years, it is observed that the wealth and family business is already taken up by 2nd generation who are at their 40s - 50s.

Structuring opportunities for young entrepreneurs, young family and hidden riches

Research shows that there is a significant pool of young entrepreneurs with hidden riches in the city who used to be under-served.  The banks and asset managers are coming after them.

Nancy Chien
Partner
Bedell Cristin

Nancy is head of Bedell Cristin's International Private Client practice in Jersey.

Nancy has extensive experience in a wide range of offshore matters in both the private client area as well as the corporate sphere. In the private client context, Nancy advises ultra-high net worth families, family offices and intermediaries on all aspects of private client structuring including the use of trusts and foundations, as well as related corporate law issues (including where such vehicles are used for philanthropic purposes). She has considerable experience with high value and complex structures which enable the clients to retain a degree of control over their family assets and achieve effective succession planning.

In the corporate area, Nancy is one of the only Jersey lawyers with specific experience in pensions and employee incentive arrangements (having previously worked for Ashurst in London). She is the chairperson of the Jersey Pensions Association and is working closely with the Jersey government to enhance Jersey's offering of end of service gratuity plans and international savings vehicles. 

Nancy also has considerable experience in regulatory matters affecting offshore vehicles and service providers, including FATCA, the common reporting standard (CRS) and economic substance.
