Market surveys show there are more than 450,000 high-net-worth families with more than RMB 6 million in investable assets across Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau. Their aggregate estimated investable assets are at least RMB 2.7 trillion, making #GreaterBayArea (GBA) the world's wealthiest region. Since 2014, there has been significant integration of the Hong Kong and Mainland Chinese financial markets, especially with the launch and growth of the Stock Connect and Bond Connect. By the end of June 2020, regulators announced the #WealthManagementConnect Scheme (WMC) which will further harmonise the two markets. This new scheme is expected to create a new channel for Chinese and Hong Kong registered financial institutions seeking capital growth through the expansions of cross-border trading and broader capital markets.
