Despite the pandemic, the number of billionaires in the Asia-Pacific continued to grow in 2021. With family businesses playing a big part in the region’s wealth creation, Money Mind looks at how early planning is key to passing down this family wealth.

SINGAPORE: Globally, around US$15.4 trillion in family wealth is expected to be passed down from one generation to the next by 2030. Of this, about 12 per cent or US$1.9 trillion will be transferred to Asian heirs, according to research firm Wealth-X.

"So for us, we have certain industries like coal, gaming, tobacco that we just absolutely will not touch.” HSBC, for example, is investing US$3.5 billion in wealth management over the next five years. The bank also plans to hire more than 5,000 customer-facing staff.
