What's New In Investments, Funds? – Hamilton Lane, Chubb Wealth

Chubb Wealth, the Hong Kong wealth management platform owned by insurer Chubb, has partnered with US private markets firm Hamilton Lane to offer a selection of its global evergreen funds to eligible professional investors.

The funds include strategies in venture and growth, Asia private assets and private infrastructure. Hamilton Lane’s evergreen range runs to 12 funds with $20.1 billion in assets under management globally, the firms said.

Chubb Investment Management (HK), a wholly owned subsidiary of US-headquartered Chubb, launched in February 2026. The platform is licensed by the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) and serves clients classified as professional investors, which requires at least HK$8 million ($1.01 billion) in investable assets. It already distributes funds from more than 10 managers, including KKR, Goldman Sachs Asset Management and PIMCO. Its alternatives offering covers private equity, private credit, infrastructure and real estate, with minimum investments from $10,000.

Hamilton Lane, which is listed on Nasdaq, had $1 trillion in assets under management and supervision as of 31 March 2026, of which $141.8 billion was discretionary.

The new funds give Chubb Wealth clients exposure to pre-IPO companies, an area typically closed to individual investors. Ben Rudd, general manager of Chubb Wealth, said: “High-growth, pre-IPO companies represent a vital private asset class that has historically represented a significant source of portfolio diversification and growth potential, yet has remained out of reach for most individual investors.”

The deal is the latest example of a global private markets manager using semi-liquid evergreen vehicles to reach Asia’s wealth channel, and of regional insurers moving beyond protection products into wealth management. Hong Kong’s private wealth management industry held more than HK$10 trillion in assets at the end of 2024, up 15 per cent year-on-year.
