Throwing back to a great session at FT’s Wealth Management Summit Asia earlier, where Zann Kwan, our Managing Partner and CIO, had another annual conversation with Ernest Chan, Deputy Editor of Ignites Asia, who moderated the session.

Together with Sandra Ro, CEO of Global Blockchain Business Council, and Angelina Kwan, Former Head of Group Regulatory Compliance and Chief Risk Officer at Stratford Finance, our co-panellists, they explored the evolving landscape of digital asset regulation, investor behaviour, and the institutionalisation of crypto across Asia.

Not a question of if digital assets become core to portfolios – but when, and under what regulatory clarity.
