SEC-registered investment adviser extends its ACGM Total Portfolio Solutions Suite™ to Hong Kong markets through newly licensed entity AWAIM (HK) LIMITED

CENTURY CITY, Calif. and HONG KONG, Sept. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Aligne Wealth Advisors Investment Management (AWAIM), a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) registered investment adviser, today announced that its Hong Kong-based Participating Affiliate entity, AWAIM (HK) LIMITED, has received Type 9 Asset Management regulatory authorization from the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) effective September 17, 2025. This landmark expansion enables AWAIM to offer its sophisticated investment strategies directly to Hong Kong and Asian markets, enhancing global access to its tactical asset allocation expertise and bolstering its global macro research capabilities to benefit its investors globally.

The SFC license authorizes AWAIM (HK) LIMITED to conduct Type 9 (asset management) regulated activities, significantly expanding the firm's ability to serve international high-net-worth investors, family offices, and institutional clients throughout the Asia-Pacific region.

STRATEGIC GLOBAL EXPANSION

The Hong Kong expansion represents a key milestone in AWAIM's global growth strategy and enables the firm to leverage Hong Kong's position as a leading international financial hub. This development allows AWAIM to:

• Offer Expanded Investment Strategies: Hong Kong-based clients now gain access to AWAIM's ACGM Total Portfolio Solutions Suite™, which includes four tactical asset allocation strategies ranging from Low Growth to Aggressive Growth, previously available only to U.S. investors.
• Enhance Cross-Border Capabilities: The SFC license facilitates seamless delivery of AWAIM's investment management services across jurisdictions, adhering to both U.S. SEC and Hong Kong SFC regulatory requirements.
• First-Hand Research & Engagement: The expansion enables a more intimate knowledge acquisition as it pertains to international markets. This is particularly vital as global capital markets are forecasted to become ever more disintegrated.

EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP PERSPECTIVE

Ivan Illan, MHKSI, AIF, CFS, Founder and Chief Investment Officer of AWAIM, commented: "Our Hong Kong expansion represents a natural evolution of our commitment to delivering forward-looking investment solutions to investors worldwide. The SFC license enables us to bring our disciplined, research-driven approach to portfolio management to one of the world's most dynamic financial centers while maintaining the highest regulatory standards across all jurisdictions where we operate."

Illan added: "This milestone reflects our dedication to identifying opportunities that optimize risk and return for clients, much like our recent strategic portfolio adjustments within the ACGM Total Portfolio Solutions Suite™ where we proactively reallocated assets from U.S. large cap equities to capitalize on Non-U.S. and emerging market trends."

FUTURE PROSPECTS

The Hong Kong expansion enables AWAIM to introduce its innovative investment strategies to Asian markets, including its tactical asset allocation approach that actively manages portfolio holdings, across asset classes, geographies, sectors, credit, and duration, throughout economic cycles based on forward-looking risk assessment . The firm plans to host a series of its Perspectives seminars in Hong Kong during the fourth quarter of 2025 to introduce its capabilities to regional professional investors and financial advisors.
