AIA International Wealth

When it comes to wealth creation, Asia is in a league of its own. With the largest intergenerational transfer of wealth in human history underway — an estimated US$5.8 trillion set to change hands in Asia Pacific by 2030 — Asia Pacific has solidified its position as both a major source and a prime destination. Singapore continues to shine as a global wealth hub, holding its place in the world’s Top 10 with an expected net inflow of 1,600 millionaires in 2025 alone. The nation's stable political climate, well-regulated financial sector, attractive tax policies, and high standard of living make the city-state a favourite destination for high-net-worth individuals, especially amidst global economic uncertainty.   Behind every decision to relocate, there are family priorities, lifestyle aspirations, and complex financial implications. At AIA International Wealth, our multidisciplinary team brings together expertise across wealth, legal, and wellbeing to ensure your financial plan aligns seamlessly with your life goals. #AIAIW #AIASG #WealthManagement #WealthbeingbyAIA

Artificial intelligence can analyse data and spot trends. But it can’t truly understand what matters to you. Wealth management goes beyond algorithms. It’s driven by human intuition, empathy, and the ability to see beyond the numbers– qualities that no machine can replicate. At AIA International Wealth, we believe that wealth is deeply personal and deserves a uniquely human perspective. Behind every financial decision are personal stories, family aspirations, and life goals, which is why true wealth management requires someone who takes the time to understand you, not just your numbers. Our team builds long-term, trusted relationships with high-net-worth clients to navigate markets and life with good astute nuanced advice. We guide clients to make informed decisions that reflect their ambitions across both health and wealth, helping them design a life to embrace whole-heartedly, not just a portfolio they want to grow. #AIAIW #AIASG #WealthManagement #WealthbeingbyAIA

For high-net-worth individuals, longevity is the new currency of wealth. As the global trend of “health as wealth” continues to gain momentum, there's a growing focus on longevity amongst this group. In APAC, more are exploring new ways to extend their lives, both physically and financially, from lifestyle changes like exercise and diet to more advanced measures such as gene therapy or cryogenic treatments. Longevity isn’t just about health—it’s about financial planning too. The majority of HNWIs are adjusting their wealth strategies to reflect their longer lifespans, reviewing their portfolios, re-evaluating retirement goals, and planning for long-term care. For Asia’s affluent, the quest to add decades to their lives comes with another challenge: navigating financial uncertainty. In APAC, most HNWIs have responded by diversifying their assets, with many also increasing their risk exposure. Investors here are not only looking for resilience but are also interested in investing in future trends or in line with their values. Navigating a longer life means having a plan that protects both your health and your wealth, even in the face of uncertainty. At AIA International Wealth, we understand that wealth is only meaningful when paired with well-being and help you protect both your health and wealth through personalised strategies, ensuring that you can thrive in the years ahead. After all, what’s the point of living longer if you can’t enjoy it?

The era of product-centric wealth management is over. Across all ages, today's high-net-worth individuals demand a holistic, comprehensive approach to wealth, not just individual products. "They want a partner who can help them navigate the complexities of intergenerational wealth transfer, succession planning, and philanthropic endeavours. This means deeper, more meaningful discussions around wealth planning, moving beyond transactional interactions to truly strategic partnerships," shares our CEO, Peggy Quek in her Prestige Singapore cover article. As they prepare for the Great Wealth Transfer, Asia' affluent are increasingly looking beyond merely accumulating wealth. They want to understand how to preserve, grow, and seamlessly pass it on to future generations. At AIA International Wealth, we make this possible. Beyond traditional wealth accumulation and preservation services, our multidisciplinary team works closely with clients to create bespoke, comprehensive plans that consider every aspect of their wealth—not just wealth creation. By blending wealth with wellness, we ensure your wealth is seamlessly integrated with your holistic life goals so you can thrive and live life to the fullest.

Last week, our CEO Peggy Quek hosted an intimate dinner with this year’s Women of Power nominees, bringing together trailblazers across the fields of finance, philanthropy, healthcare, the arts, and more. Over a thoughtfully curated evening of exquisite food, meaningful conversation and connection, we celebrated this community of women who are not only transforming their industries but also enriching the communities around them. At AIA International Wealth, we champion Wealthbeing by AIA, a philosophy that recognises that true wealth comes from balancing financial success with personal wellbeing. It was a privilege to honour women who embody this philosophy in how they lead, live, and give back. #AIAIW #AIASG #WealthManagement #WealthbeingbyAIA

What does it mean to care for future generations beyond passing on wealth? At this year’s Prestige Singapore’s Women of Power panel, our CEO Peggy Quek shared what it truly means to craft a legacy; one that’s not just measured in dollars and assets, but also in the strong values and beliefs we inculcate in those that come after us. In today’s unpredictable world, future-proofing your legacy means taking on a long-term approach that goes beyond protecting assets. Legacy planning is also about protecting what you’ve built by preparing the next generation. That means involving them early, helping them understand not only how to manage wealth but also the responsibility that comes with it. After all, a legacy isn’t just about what you pass down—it’s about who you pass it to. That’s why at AIA International Wealth, we take a holistic approach—blending wealth structuring, succession strategies, and wellness planning into personalised solutions that can stand the test of time. #AIAIW #AIASG #WealthManagement #WealthbeingbyAIA

What does wealth look like to you? Beyond stocks, property, or cash, one of the most fulfilling returns on investment today is travel — not for more money, but for a richer life. High-net-worth travellers across Asia are ushering in a new era of travel, marked by wellness, purpose, personalisation, and a shift in priorities. Travellers are becoming deliberate in how they travel, where they go, and what they hope to gain from the experience. From nature retreats to cultural deep dives, travel has become HNW's top investment in personal wellbeing and emotional fulfilment. Living life to the fullest means pursuing meaningful experiences that nourish your mind, body, and spirit, all while balancing your health and wealth to enjoy them with true peace of mind. #AIAIW #AIASG #WealthManagement #WealthbeingbyAIA 

Building wealth is not easy. Passing it down is harder. One of the most overlooked aspects of wealth planning is preparing the next generation. While much focus is placed on growing assets, human capital is the foundation of lasting legacies. With over US$5.8 trillion expected to change hands in the great wealth transfer in Asia, families are realising that preserving wealth demands early, intentional investment to raise confident, grounded, and empathetic heirs who can steward that wealth. However, too often these lessons for the next generation begin only in adulthood, which puts hard-earned legacies at risk, with 70% of families losing their wealth by the second generation, and 90% by the third. Wealth isn’t a one-time achievement. It’s a legacy that must be actively sustained, generation after generation. At AIA International Wealth, we help families grow and protect their wealth, not just by managing assets, but by nurturing the next generation to carry it forward. Because legacy isn’t only about what you pass down, but who you pass it to. #AIAIW #AIASG #WealthManagement #WealthbeingbyAIA 

The next generation is poised to reshape the future of global wealth. As the great wealth transfer unfolds, today’s wealthy 18- to 35-year-olds are carving out their own path when it comes to spending, saving, and investing. For them, experiences outweigh material possessions, with health and wellness remaining a priority, especially among high earners who are increasingly prioritising longevity. Even as the younger affluent generation embraced digital tools and alternative investments, they still gravitate towards the tried-and-tested investments of stocks, property, and cash. And while they are comfortable purchasing high-value items online, they still value and recognise the need for personal financial guidance when navigating complex purchase decisions. Each generation has unique priorities that shape their approach to life and managing their wealth. Our team of multidisciplinary experts are dedicated to crafting a personalised wealth strategy tailored so you enjoy life today and in the future, exactly the way you envision. #AIAIW #AIASG #WealthManagement #WealthbeingbyAIA

As US market unpredictability grows, Asia’s wealthiest are reassessing where and how they invest. Geopolitical tensions, policy shifts, and recession risks are prompting many high-net-worth individuals (HNWI) and family offices across Asia to reduce their exposure to US assets. While the US remains a key player in the market, a clear trend is emerging: investors are turning to Europe and Asia, primarily China and Hong Kong, drawn by the more attractive valuations. In these volatile times, having a clear, long-term financial strategy is more crucial than ever. At AIA International Wealth, we believe in staying the course with a strategy that balances agility and discipline. Our team is here to help you navigate shifting economic tides, adapt to global risks, and stay focused on your long-term ambitions. Let's together build a roadmap that weathers volatility and supports your goals, no matter how the markets move next. #AIAIW #AIASG #WealthManagement #WealthbeingbyAIA #HNW #InvestmentStrategy
