AMTD International, Inc. is a leading comprehensive financial institution. According to the CIC Report, they are the No. 1 independent investment banking firm in Asia as measured by both the number and the aggregate offering size of Hong Kong and U.S. IPOs completed in each of 2018 and the first quarter of 2019, and the largest independent asset management firm in Asia in serving both PRC regional banks and new economy companies as measured by AUM as of March 31, 2019.
AMTD is one of the few financial institutions that are majority-owned and managed by local Hong Kong entrepreneurs and professionals with extensive knowledge and experience across Greater China, and this genuine "Hong Kong-owned" identity positions the company to play an instrumental role in connecting local clients from Hong Kong and China with global capital markets. Compared to other global and Chinese market players in Hong Kong, AMTD believes that it benefits from greater execution efficiency, local market and industry know-how, and unparalleled access to the sizeable capital of Hong Kong's tycoon families.
AMTD's global capital markets expertise, coupled with deep roots in Asia, have propelled it to become one of the "go-to" financial institutions in Hong Kong, fulfilling the complex financial needs of its clients across all phases of their development. Its clientele includes PRC banks, privately-owned companies primarily in new economy sectors, and Hong Kong-based blue-chip conglomerates, among others. AMTD operates a full-service platform encompassing three business lines: investment banking, asset management, and strategic investment.
