Phuket marked an important milestone for us as we held our first Asia offsite, bringing together colleagues from across the region, alongside teammates from our U.S. office, for a few memorable days of connection, collaboration and celebration. 🎇 🙌   It was an opportunity to step back from the day-to-day, strengthen relationships, and celebrate the people and partnerships that continue to shape our journey.   As part of our commitment to being a #forceforgood, we were proud to support Phuket Has Been Good To Us Foundation, giving back to the local community in a small but meaningful way. It was also a pleasure to spend time with our insurer partners during the offsite. Special thanks to Manulife, FWD Insurance, Sun Life, HSBC Life, AIA, and Hang Seng Insurance for their continued support.   Watch the highlights below. ⬇️   #howdenprivatewealth #asiaoffsite #collectivepower    Rohan Bhappu Goh Chye Huat Benjamin Cheng Bryan Pee Debbie Lau, CFP Shirley S.

A thoughtful and engaging discussion at the STEP Hong Kong seminar, exploring how art is increasingly approached as part of comprehensive wealth and estate planning. As art collections grow in value, they raise considerations beyond collecting – liquidity, risk when financed or relocated, and smooth generational transfer. The session brought together finance, legal, and risk experts, underscoring the need for an integrated approach to art wealth planning. Expertly moderated by Regina Lo, Wealth Planner, UBS Global Wealth Management, the panel featured: Jennifer Scally, Senior Advisor, Fine Art & Private Clients, Howden Private Wealth – sharing insights on the role of specialised protection in preserving collection value and managing evolving risks. Shaun Desiderio, SVP, Regional Portfolio Manager, Christie’s Art Finance – offering a market perspective on art‑backed lending and liquidity solutions. Erica Wong, Partner, Banking & Finance Practice, Deacons’ Corporate Finance Department – discussing key legal considerations around structuring and succession planning relating to art assets. Thank you to Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (Hong Kong) Limited and the speakers for a practical and well‑rounded exchange on the intersection of art, finance, and private wealth. #alternativeassets #artinsurance #protection #successionplanning #howdenprivatewealth
