Hong Kong has surpassed Switzerland as the world's top cross-border wealth hub, with assets reaching $2.95 trillion, according to the Boston Consulting Group's Global Wealth Report 2026. This marks a narrow $10 billion lead over Switzerland, which holds $2.94 trillion. The shift is primarily driven by capital inflows from mainland China, bolstered by a robust IPO market and strong equity performance.
In 2025, Hong Kong's cross-border wealth grew by 10.7%, significantly outpacing the global average increase of 8.4%. The city is projected to continue expanding at a rate of 9% annually through 2030, alongside Singapore. Notably, Hong Kong's financial institutions have embraced digital assets, with 22 banks authorized to distribute such products by mid-2025, and over 70% of family offices investing in or considering digital assets. This positions Hong Kong as a significant player in the digital asset market, potentially enhancing liquidity and demand.
