Remark:
- Privacy and shareholding complexity:Most properties are held through offshore companies such as BVI, and it is necessary to penetrate the multi-layered equity structure to link to the actual controller. Only publicly reported or directly related cases are listed here.
- How to obtain identity:Some wealthy people obtained Hong Kong citizenship through the "Capital Investor Entrance Scheme" (suspended) or the "Quality Talent Scheme", and the time is mostly speculated by the media.
- Data timeliness: Property transaction information is as of 2023, and subsequent changes are not fully covered. It is recommended to use the Hong Kong Land Registry Electronic Search System (https://www.iris.gov.hk) Verify the latest records.
