Zhong Lun Partner Hengka Ji Invited to Speak at DBS Hong Kong Wealth Planning Symposium - Navigating the VUCA World
Wealthy families worldwide are constantly faced with the challenges of wealth transfer, succession planning, reliable wealth and value managers selection, navigating local and cross-border tax implications, preserving family unity, and fulfilling social responsibilities. These difficulties are further exacerbated by the VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity) nature of today’s world. Against such backdrop, DBS held the Wealth Planning Symposium - Navigating the VUCA World at the JW Marriott Hotel in Hong Kong on May 31, 2024.
Invited by DBS, speakers discussed specific wealth planning challenges and shared practical experience in assisting families to tackle these challenges at the breakout sessions. Hengka (Henry) Ji, partner at Zhong Lun Law Firm, was invited to deliver a speech on behalf of Greater China’s legal professionals from the PRC perspective on “Navigating Assets & Families in High-Tax Jurisdictions” alongside other distinguished experts from various jurisdictions. Mr. Ji’s engaging discussions with participating ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) families covered practical considerations and crucial aspects of family wealth planning across various jurisdictions and offered valuable insights into wealth planning tools to mitigate tax risks in high-tax jurisdictions as well as strategies for future acquisitions or relocations, earning him wide acclaim among attendees.
