In collaboration with leading academics from the National University of Singapore and Hong Kong University, Moomoo Private Wealth presents a comprehensive analysis of the evolving WealthTech landscape in Asia's key financial hubs.
This groundbreaking research, based on a survey of 838 investors across Singapore and Hong Kong, reveals how technological innovation and changing investor preferences are reshaping wealth management, particularly for digital brokerages seeking to serve clients across the wealth spectrum.
The study, authored by Dr. Ben Charoenwong (NUS) and Dr. Alan Kwan (HKU), provides unique insights into investor behaviour and preferences across different wealth segments, from newly wealthy to ultra-affluent clients.
Key Findings:
Over 65% of investors across all wealth classifications are comfortable using technology to manage finances
72% of respondents consider personal investment beliefs important in decision-making
63% prioritise holistic portfolio tracking and performance analysis tools
Hong Kong investors (62%) show higher risk appetite compared to Singapore (39%) in the newly wealthy segment
Contrary to conventional wisdom, the research reveals that wealthier clients are more receptive to automated solutions, while lower-wealth clients prefer human advisors, challenging traditional assumptions about technology adoption in wealth management.
