CICC GBA Wealth Management Forum gathers 400 financial leaders
Investment bank CICC convened more than 400 financial industry executives in Hong Kong for the 2026 Greater Bay Area Wealth Management Forum
The CICC 2026 GBA Wealth Management Forum took place in Hong Kong on September 17, 2026, gathering over 400 financial leaders. The event aligned with the 15th Five-Year Plan and focused on Hong Kong's first Five-Year Plan, the Greater Bay Area's development, enhanced financial market connectivity, and the evolving wealth management sector.
Held under the leadership of CICC Vice Chairman and President Wang Shuguang, the Forum opened with remarks highlighting the significance of this year in both the 15th Five-Year Plan and the Greater Bay Area's accelerated development. CICC's Chief Economist Dr. Miao Yanliang delivered a keynote speech on the global monetary order's reset, emphasizing the weakening of U.S. Treasuries' status as safe assets and the growing diversification of global capital allocation, thereby creating opportunities for RMB internationalization.
The Forum featured insights from leading experts, including Dr. Fang Zhou of the One Country Two Systems Research Institute and Dr. Wang Jixian of the Belt & Road Hong Kong Centre, who discussed Hong Kong's role as a new engine for future growth and the potential benefits of closer integration with the Greater Bay Area. The discussions covered a wide array of topics, including global asset allocation, Chinese asset revaluation, Chinese companies' global expansion, the AI computing era, alternative investments, compliance and governance under new outbound investment regulations, and wealth management perspectives.
The event underscored CICC's commitment to green development and the integration of AI, with innovative showcases such as embodied intelligent robots, AI-generated videos, and an interactive robotic matrix wall. As a fourth consecutive year event, the Forum serves as a vital platform for navigating the evolving wealth management landscape in the Greater Bay Area, fostering connections with global resources, and supporting Hong Kong's transition into an international financial center and a financial powerhouse.
