One can expect Chinese growth rates to average 15% per year through 2025, moderating to 12% per year for 2025 to 2030. In total this will result in USD 8.5 trillion in new assets flowing into the industry from Chinese investors from now on (2018) and 2030.

On top of the sheer scale of growth, China's unique attributes and conditions mean that bold thinking and pushing boundaries are needed. For Chinese firms, this means comfort in experimenting with new products and distribution methods, mindful of the power of scale.

For foreign firms, this requires assigning responsibility for their China strategy to senior management (not the regional sales
