✨ New Research Launch: Reframing Impact Investment Funds in South-East Asia and China

On April 24, 2026, Give2Asia HKSAR launched its new research report, "Reframing Impact Investment Funds in South-East Asia and China: Voices from the Market," at the American Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong. The event brought together leaders from family offices, impact investment funds, philanthropic organizations, and professional services firms, with additional participants joining virtually from across the globe.

Based on insights from more than 100 interviews with institutional investors, multi-generational family offices, and policy experts, the report examines how private wealth can be better aligned with the region’s most pressing social and environmental challenges. The research identifies practical opportunities to strengthen the impact investing ecosystem and unlock greater cross-sector collaboration.

Key recommendations include:
✅ Building stronger pathways for family office participation in impact investing.
✅ Expanding capacity-building opportunities for the next generation of wealth owners.
✅ Strengthening regional networks, knowledge sharing, and market infrastructure.

The launch featured a panel discussion with leading voices from the impact investing, legal, family office, and sustainable finance sectors, exploring both the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of impact capital in the region.

Special thanks to our panelists and partners for contributing their expertise and helping advance the conversation around sustainable finance and social impact.
