Intern - Asset Management Summer Programme - Hong Kong - 2026

Established in 2012, Hong Kong is one of our offices in the Asia-Pacific region for L&G’s global Asset Management division. Our people in Hong Kong work across a broad spectrum of investments, trading, credit research, sales and relationship management, risk, compliance and operations roles, and across both the institutional and wholesale client segments.

Asia is a hugely important geographical region for L&G’s asset management business and our Hong Kong office (alongside our office in Singapore, which opened recently in 2023) is key in achieving our growth ambitions. 

We are part of the Legal & General group (L&G), which was established in the UK in 1836 and now operates globally with over 12,000 employees across the UK, United States, Europe and Asia-Pacific. L&G is a major global investor across public and private markets, with USD 1.4 trillion in assets under management. We have deep expertise in asset management and origination with global capabilities to deliver investment solutions for our clients, which include individual savers, pension scheme members and global institutions, investing alongside L&G’s own balance sheet.

L&G has market-leading capabilities across the full spectrum of asset classes, ranging from index-tracking and active funds to liquidity and liability-based risk management strategies. Through our private markets’ platform, we offer access to a wide range of alternative investment opportunities, including specialist real estate, clean energy, infrastructure, venture capital, and private credit. We have an enduring commitment to responsible investment, dedicated to creating long-term, sustainable value for our clients and partners.
