The Ritz-Carlton, Bali, Unveils a Festive Season of Christmas and New Year Celebrations

The AI wealth platform for independent advisors in Asia marks the opening with advisors, clients and partners, with a second Hong Kong office in Central to follow in early 2027

HONG KONG, Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Growhill Wealth, one of the first AI-native wealth platforms in Asia, today officially unveiled its new Hong Kong office on the 15th floor of One Peking Road, Tsim Sha Tsui.

Driven by rapid growth as a premier global wealth hub and the rise of artificial intelligence in financial services, Hong Kong's wealth sector is well-positioned to lead the region through this technological shift.

"Hong Kong is where Asia's families come to plan their wealth, and opening here—with Central to follow—is a clear statement of our commitment to grow alongside this city. We strive to help pioneer the AI-driven evolution of Asia's wealth management industry," said Alan Lau, Executive Chairman of Growhill Wealth.

Over 100 advisors, clients and partners attended the opening events, held under the theme, "Reach Higher, See Further".

The new office brings Growhill's investment, product, technology, and advisory support teams together under one roof, providing platform advisors with a professional venue to meet clients in Hong Kong. Currently supporting around 200 advisors managing over US$800 million in client assets, the firm is also scheduled to open another Hong Kong office in Central in early 2027.

Growhill provides independent advisors with capabilities traditionally reserved for large institutions, including an open-architecture, rigorously curated multi-asset product shelf, comprehensive regulatory support, and an AI workforce that handles routine work and real time analysis. This allows advisors to dedicate more time to their clients, anchored in Growhill's principle that AI should elevate the standard of advice while licensed professionals remain fully accountable.

"In-person engagement remains irreplaceable in the advisory relationship. Backed by institutional-grade facilities and robust risk management, our platform gives advisors the foundational support for them to deeply attend to their clients' overall financial needs," Lau said. 

As part of its ongoing expansion in Hong Kong, Growhill plans to introduce a dedicated family services ecosystem soon, forging strategic partnerships across education, residency advisory, health, and lifelong learning, empowering advisors to deliver holistic, family-centric wealth solutions.
