St. James's Place Launches New Private Client Offering for Asia

St. James’s Place Wealth Management (SJP) has announced the launch of its Asia Private Client proposition in Hong Kong and Singapore.

The offering aligns with SJP’s commitment to providing an accessible, high-quality, and advice-driven private client experience to Asia’s growing affluent population. SJP Asia aims to provide greater accessibility to Private Client Services, with advice and services aligned to a clients’ long-term financial ambitions and requirements. The minimum investable net worth required will initially start at USD1 million, but this is expected to increase as client demand continues to grow.

Clients can access a broad range of carefully selected and monitored services and investment solutions. As part of the experience, SJP Asia Private Clients will be able to benefit from SJP’s distinctive Investment Management Approach and access the group’s strong relationships with a curated group of leading tax managers, accountants, expatriation consultants, mortgages/estates and insurance specialists.

As part of this offering, SJP Asia recently partnered with Swiss banking group, Swissquote, a leader in private client digital solutions. High quality advice delivered by the SJP Asia Partnership coupled with access to this investment platform will help facilitate an accessible outcome-orientated private client experience. The SJP Asia Private Client proposition will focus on delivering value-driven returns for clients, with an emphasis on performance and quality.

 

Matthew Deeprose, Commercial Director, SJP Asia, said: “Since launching the SJP brand in Asia in 2015, we have been able to help a significant number of Private Clients with a broad range of needs. Their feedback has helped us design a service that we believe both meet the needs of a broad range of Private Clients, whilst offering significant value.

 

With Asia seeing the fastest growing number of millionaires per capita in the world and a strong demand for a transparent multi-generational advice-based approach, we see significant potential for our offering in the market. Since we launched this service earlier in 2021, we have already been able to help a number of new and existing clients, as well as receive interest from private bankers and relationship managers to partner in our growth.”

 

Joel Carpenter, Divisional Director, SJP Asia, said: “As one of Asia’s premier wealth management businesses, this private client proposition represents a logical next step for us in furthering our engagement with high net worth clients. With this move, we will see improved accessibility with a continued emphasis on value for our clients.”
