HONG KONG, Feb. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Law Wai-Sum (A.K.A. J Law) has made history as the first Hong Kong participant to win the prestigious US Investing Championship. Competing in the $1 million Money Manager Verified Ratings category, he delivered an astonishing 353.9% annual return, breaking the world record set in 2021 by legendary trader Mark Minervini. This milestone is a proud moment for Hong Kong’s financial community and an inspiration to aspiring traders.

A 40-Year Legacy of Legends: US Investing Championship Welcomes Its First Hong Kong Winner

The US Investing Championship (USIC), established in 1983 by Stanford University’s Dr. Norman Zadeh, is one of the world’s most prestigious investment competitions. Known for its rigorous standards, it requires participants to trade with real-money accounts and regularly submit statements for auditing.

Over the past 40 years, the competition has celebrated icons such as hedge fund titans Paul Tudor Jones, Louis Bacon, and David Ryan. With J Law’s unprecedented victory, Hong Kong has etched its name into the annals of this prestigious competition, proudly showcasing its first-ever champion.

From Teacher to Champion: J Law’s Journey as Hong Kong’s First Champion

J Law’s journey to becoming Hong Kong’s first US Investing Championship winner is a testament to passion and perseverance. Once a secondary school teacher, he discovered a deep interest in the stock market and boldly transitioned into the world of trading. With no formal training, J Law taught himself the strategies of renowned investment masters, applying their insights to real-world practice and refining his approach over years of hard work.

His unique trading strategy ultimately propelled him to the top of the leaderboard in 2024, making him the first Hong Kong trader to claim the title. J Law’s exceptional performance even earned congratulations from Mark Minervini, who praised him publicly for his historic achievement.

Hong Kong: A Launchpad for Its First Champion’s Success

J Law attributes his success to the unique advantages offered by Hong Kong as a global financial hub. The city’s world-class trading infrastructure, diverse investment options, and dynamic financial ecosystem provided the perfect foundation for his trading career. “Hong Kong is a land of endless opportunities,” J Law stated. “With dedication and the right strategy, anyone can achieve extraordinary results.”

J Law’s Message: “Hong Kong’s Financial Vibrancy Fuels Success—And I Hope to Inspire Future Champions”

As Hong Kong’s first champion of the US Investing Championship, J Law sees his victory as a beacon of hope for aspiring traders in the city. Despite the solitary and challenging nature of trading, he believes Hong Kong offers the ideal environment for success, with its robust financial systems, low tax regime, and diverse investment tools.

“Never underestimate the potential of this small yet powerful city,” J Law emphasized. “As the first Hong Kong trader to win this prestigious title, I hope my success inspires others to aim high and make their mark on the global stage.”

Mili and Egnyte Partner to put Client Documents to work in Financial Advice

Published

By

The partnership brings Egnyte’s secure content platform and Mili’s AI agents together, so advice firms can deliver more comprehensive, personalized advice at scale.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Mili, an AI platform for wealth management firms, and Egnyte, a leader in secure content collaboration, intelligence, and governance, today announced a partnership that brings Mili’s AI agents to client documents in Egnyte. Advisors work from a file or a whole client folder alongside data from the firm’s CRM, portfolio and planning systems, under each advisor’s Egnyte permissions.

Kitces Research finds that reviewing client documents is the most common way advisors use AI. Its productivity research puts a new financial plan at 15 to 40 hours of team time.

Advisors use Mili’s agents to model the tax cost of moving a client’s accounts into the firm’s strategy, weigh a rebalance against unrealized gains, summarize a bonus agreement and build a financial snapshot from a statement. The agents link answers to their sources and flag what an analysis may still need.

David Ringler, Managing Director at Onyx Bridge Wealth Group ($1.6B+ AUM), said, “Egnyte and Mili are two valuable pieces of technology in our stack, and bringing them together has changed how our practice runs. Mili’s meeting prep and planning agents have become significantly better with Egnyte data behind them.”

Chirag Gandhi, Co-Founder and CEO of Mili, said, “How many clients an advice firm can serve well has long been capped. It is set by the work of understanding each client’s financial life. Agentic AI is changing that, helping advice firms uplift client capacity by accelerating the delivery of high-quality advice.”

Kyle Blair, Director of Global Financial Services at Egnyte, said, “Egnyte helps financial services firms accelerate critical business operations by turning document-heavy tasks into faster, connected, and revenue-generating workflows. Our partnership enables Mili’s AI agents to securely access and work on customer data within Egnyte for better business outcomes.”

The integration is live for mutual customers. Building on Mili’s work with hundreds of advice firms, it aims to put a firm’s full client knowledge into its advice.
