Wealth management has always been a topic of great discussion. However, currently, there is a trend of generalization and abstraction regarding the concept of wealth management, and a basic framework for wealth management is still lacking. On March 1st, Longan Guangzhou successfully organized the event “Dialogue: What is Wealth Management? – Reconstructing and Practicing Past Concepts”. Members of the Dishi Team at Longan Guangzhou, Lawyer Li Dingbang, who is the deputy director of the Marriage and Family Affairs Department at Longan Guangzhou, Senior Advisor Dai Wenjun from the Dishi Team, and Gao Wei, a director of Guangzhou Grand Hall Investment Holdings Group Co., Ltd., shared their insights and engaged in discussions. In addition to the internal colleagues from Longan Guangzhou who actively participated in this event, some partners and experts were also invited to attend the event to discuss and propose new ideas for wealth management for entrepreneurs in the new era, along with legal solutions.

Over the past 40 years since the reform and opening up, there have been profound changes in China’s social and economic landscape. The increasingly developed market economy system and favorable business environment have produced many outstanding private entrepreneurs. They seized the opportunities of the times, faced challenges without fear, and actively created wealth, contributing significantly to the increase in job opportunities and the high-quality development of the economy. At the same time, the massive accumulation of wealth also brings potential or real risks related to families, enterprises, etc. Therefore, the need for wealth management is even greater than ever before.

In the new era, how to correct the outdated views on wealth management, and how to provide accurate, comprehensive, and genuine wealth management services for enterprises and entrepreneurs, are topics that need to be focused on and discussed. This is also a key focus of this event.

The event was conducted in the form of a dialogue. The three guests discussed the basic concepts and frameworks of wealth management. They also discussed how various enterprises and entrepreneurs can carry out accurate wealth management under the new era. The three guests analyzed the past concepts of wealth management from both theoretical and practical perspectives.
