Thailand Wealth Management Forum 2022

Conrad Hotel, Bangkok,Thailand

Hubbis is delighted to have successfully hosted another live event in our 2022 post-lockdown live event series. The Thailand Wealth Management Forum again feature our new morning-plus format, which worked ideally. This was our 9th such event in Bangkok, and of course, the first since 2019 due to the hiatus brought about by the global pandemic.

We managed to provide delegates with four succinct yet detailed panel discussions amongst our selected experts, as well as four comprehensive and timely presentations, as well as one noteworthy Head-to-Head interview.

We are pleased to report that more than 100 attendees joined the event for the day, including 17 speakers, all well-known for their expertise and communication skills in the Thai and regional wealth industry. They ranged from leading local and regional private bankers, to EAM/MFO/SFO leaders, as well as brand-name asset managers, private asset specialists, investment migration experts, Fintechs & Digital Transformation professionals, and assorted investment specialists.

Together they represented a remarkable cross-section of the Thai and broader Asian wealth management industry.

The event covered numerous issues related to the Thai wealth management industry, as the speakers reviewed the state of the local market, including investor appetite, demand for estate and legacy planning, and the positioning of the regulators in terms, of new rules and also new liberalisation measures. We focused attention on the value of reaching out to the next generations of clients, as they inherit vast tracts of private wealth and/or make their own new wealth.

We also looked in detail at the issues around investment migration, which has become so much more important to HNW and UHNW clients since the pandemic took grip in early 2020. Our speakers highlighted the trend to the internationalisation of private client portfolios, as well as their increasing interest in private assets and private markets. And of course, no event would be complete without digital transformation experts reviewing the latest digital solutions to help enhance the wealth management offering.

We found the speakers and the delegates surprisingly optimistic about the outlook for wealth management in Thailand, as private wealth increases, and as clients seek an increasingly sophisticated and diversified offering.

We would like to thank our partners for the event, who were: Allfunds, Amundi Asset Management, Comarch Capital Markets, GAM Investments and Henley & Partners
