Norton Rose Fulbright Expands Hong Kong Practice with Appointment of Jason Chan as Funds Partner
The Global law firm Norton Rose Fulbright is pleased to announce that Jason Chan has joined the firm as a partner in its Hong Kong office, strengthening its investment funds and regulatory practice in the region.
Jason brings extensive experience in the establishment and structuring of a wide range of investment funds, including hedge funds, private equity funds, crypto funds, tokenised funds, venture capital funds, and retail funds such as ETFs. He has been actively involved in the FinTech and virtual assets space, advising industry participants on evolving regulatory frameworks and transactional matters. Jason also advises financial institutions on securities and asset management regulatory and licensing issues.
Raj Karia, Global Head of M&A and Securities at Norton Rose Fulbright, commented,
"We’re seeing sustained demand for fund formation and financing solutions from our clients around the world, alongside growing interest in tokenisation and real‑world asset strategies. Jason strengthens our bench in Hong Kong and gives asset managers seamless access to cross-border corporate and regulatory advice as they deploy capital into and out of the PRC, navigate licensing and compliance, and respond to heightened regulatory scrutiny. His appointment aligns squarely with our strategy to connect clients with multidisciplinary support – from structuring and fundraising to financing."
Psyche Tai, Head of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong corporate, M&A and securities practice, said,
"Jason’s arrival enhances our full-service capability, bringing together fund formation, SFC licensing, and the structuring of tokenised strategies. Clients will benefit from a single, integrated team that can guide them from launch to financing and, where needed, through to contentious matters. We’re delighted to welcome Jason to the firm."
Jason Chan commented,
"Norton Rose Fulbright’s long history in Hong Kong and truly international platform were decisive factors for me. The firm’s established presence in the city, combined with its global network, gives clients seamless access to top-flight cross-border legal advice. I’m excited to contribute to the growth of the Hong Kong team and help clients navigate the complex intersection of funds, regulation, and virtual assets."
Jason Chan’s appointment reinforces Norton Rose Fulbright’s commitment to delivering integrated, cross-border fund formation and regulatory services in Hong Kong. His expertise in both traditional and tokenised investment structures, coupled with the firm’s multidisciplinary capabilities, positions clients to navigate the increasingly complex regulatory landscape across Asia and globally.
