A Growing Global Community
HOME > CHAPTERS > GREATER CHINA
Since its formation in 2002 under the leadership of Greater China Development Chair Liang Tien Lung, the Chapter has demonstrated a strong commitment to professional excellence, ethical financial consulting, and the IARFC's mission of empowering financial professionals to make a transformational difference in the lives of the individuals and families they serve.
Working closely with the IARFC Board of Trustees, the Greater China Chapter continues to strengthen the profession, promote ethical standards, and expand the Association's global community. Their ongoing dedication reflects the belief that financial consulting is a noble profession built on integrity, service, and a commitment to improving clients' financial futures.
The IARFC Greater China Conference has established itself as more than a routine annual meeting. It is a multifaceted professional platform designed to deliver significant value to its participants and the wider industry. It represents:
A Platform for Elite Networking and Collaborative Growth: The conference serves as a critical nexus where financial planning elites, practitioners, and thought leaders from across the region converge. It facilitates invaluable peer-to-peer learning, sharing of best practices, and the formation of collaborative networks that extend beyond the event itself. This environment nurtures collective professional growth and raises the industry’s overall expertise.
A Catalyst for Sustained Industry Advancement: By consistently addressing forward-looking and pressing themes—such as the 2025 focus on FinTech—the conference injects a continuous stream of new ideas, strategies, and technological insights into the profession. It acts as a key driver for the industry’s adaptation and evolution, ensuring that practitioners are equipped to meet modern challenges.
A Commitment to Professional Excellence: Mirroring the IARFC’s founding principles, the conference is dedicated to enhancing the knowledge, technical skills, and professional standing of financial planners. This commitment is realized through curated content from top experts, discussions on regulatory and ethical standards, and a focus on practical, client-centric solutions.
