The company, which has run the Blackstone University programme for 13 years globally, will launch it in Hong Kong along with the Private Wealth Management Association (PWMA).
The course aims to provide knowledge and resources for wealth managers to support individual investors who are increasingly looking to diversify their portfolios and allocate funds to private markets, the PWMA and Blackstone said on Thursday.
“While there’s momentum in the adoption of private markets, individual investors remain under-allocated,” said Ed Huang, head of Asia-Pacific for Blackstone Private Wealth Solutions. “We believe allocation will continue to rise as wealth-management professionals and individual investors seek portfolio diversification and attractive risk-adjusted performance.”
