9:45am – 10:25am Panel 1: Private Banking and Wealth Management in China — the Next Phase
Following substantial industry reforms announced in 2018, how are private banks and wealth managers positioning themselves for growth and ensuring they are the most trusted (and capable) advisor to their clients? With the coming next wave of financial market openings, how will the leading Chinese private banks and wealth managers consult and advise their clients to understand the nature of market risk and return, as well as what constitutes realistic return expectations in complex markets? What new partnership and market access opportunities may become available for international private banks who are keen to contribute to China’s industry development?

10:50am – 11:30am Panel 2: Changing Client Expectations and Value-Added Demands
Many Chinese clients are transitioning from wealth generation to wealth preservation, encouraging the industry to provide more support around philanthropy, trusts, insurance, health and other lifestyle/concierge services which are required by clients and their families. These wealth preservation and value-added services are key tools in attracting and retaining clients, so how are the leading private banks and wealth managers developing their service propositions, and which service providers are winning the Chinese market and client trust?

11:35am – 12:15pm Panel 3: Product Evolution and Client Appetite in a Global Context
From the trade war to Brexit and Kashmir to the Middle East, international markets continue to become more complex and skewed towards downside risk. Yet the allure of all-time stock market highs and renewed central bank monetary easing means that sustainable asset allocation is even more important for Chinese UHNW/HNW clients. How are private bankers and wealth managers advising clients to prepare for 2020? In particular, what new product formats and structures are being added to product shelves to better serve clients and manage risk? How are managed solutions/discretionary allocations developing within China?
