Overseas Diversification Minimizes Risk, But Requires Increased Knowledge Of Compliance, Taxation, And Regulatory Issues

Jersey Finance's White Paper looks at the challenges facing Chinese HNW and UHNW individuals.

HONG KONG: Chinese high-net-worth (HNW) and ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) individuals are increasingly looking for greater diversification, protection and portfolio growth as they become more financially sophisticated, according to new research from Jersey Finance.

The report, "The Internationalisation of Chinese Wealth – 2016" is based on proprietary research conducted by Jersey Finance, the body which promotes the jurisdiction as a robust, transparent, financial centre, and Hubbis, a provider of events and content for Asia's Wealth Management community, from interviews with industry representatives. The white paper examines the driving forces behind Chinese investors' increasing appetite for foreign investment, and the risks and challenges they must prepare for in doing so.
