History

Asian Private Banker was founded in November 2009.

The region's main event to focus on the private banking advisory community is the 10th APB Summit (formerly Investment Advisory Summit). First held in Hong Kong on June 2010, it led to a sister event in Singapore in October 2010, and the two events have since been held annually. A range of industry functions and thought-leadership events are now hosted annually by Asian Private Banker.

Asian Private Banker released its first Asia AUM (Assets Under Management) League Table for the top 20 private banks in Asia in April 2012, followed by the Asia RM (Relationship Managers) Headcount League Table. These league tables are updated annually (in March) and are a result of investigative journalism and data collation. Asian Private Banker's AUM and RM League Tables are used by mainstream financial media (Bloomberg,[1] Financial Times,[2] Reuters,[3] The Business Times[4]).

Asian Private Banker's first Awards for Distinction was held in 2011. The Awards Gala Dinner, held in February each year, is a gathering of key figures in Asia's private banking community.
