Launched in 2012, Citywire Asia features in-depth interviews with industry leaders, bringing private wealth professionals up-to-date analysis of the news that matters. ‘Citywire Asia was our first entry into the world’s fastest-growing region, and highlights the nature of fund selection and distribution as a global industry,’ says James Erskine, Citywire’s head of Asia.
Erskine says Citywire Asia’s growth has reinforced his resolve to build key relationships across the region. ‘As our business has developed we have honed our focus on private bankers across Singapore and Hong Kong – but we are also active in Malaysia, Thailand and Taiwan,’ he says. ‘It’s a diverse region subject to rapid social and political change so it’s very important to understand how players in this market operate.’
