He is known as a veteran real estate investor, with great influence in the Hong Kong financial and commercial sector, especially through high-rise and shopping mall development projects. What is noteworthy is that after his death, the division of his assets attracted public attention because he only left his son a fixed amount of money each month instead of giving his entire estate immediately. How Mr. Hui Sai-hun Arranges His Inheritance
The entire ~42 billion HKD was placed in a family trust. Instead of being divided directly, the beneficiaries (including son Hui Tan-hanh/Julian Hui) received a fixed living allowance of ~2 million HKD/month. The Hong Kong media once called this a “stingy plan”, but in fact it is a mechanism to preserve long-term assets for many generations of descendants.
