Solaris Capital Advisors

Solaris Capital Advisors was established in 2014 by Joseph Sun. The firm operates as a multi-family office licensed by the Hong Kong SFC for Type 9 asset management and Type 4 securities advisory. Joseph Sun previously served as Head of Asia TMT Portfolio at Och-Ziff Capital and maintains an advisory role with Sefon Holdings on Asian equities and global technology. The firm deploys capital across hedge funds focused on long/short equities, quantitative strategies, distressed situations, and PIPE transactions. It conducts direct private equity investments and maintains access to external managers. Venture capital activities include a dedicated growth fund managed jointly with Foxconn Group targeting high-velocity sectors. Real estate operations cover commercial properties, REITs, and private partnerships, with the firm currently directing a redevelopment project exceeding US $1.2 billion. Geographic coverage centers on Hong Kong, mainland China, and Taiwan. The team reports combined investment experience exceeding 80 years. Additional offices support operations in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Taipei. Ming-Kai Cheng joined as Managing Director and Chief Strategist in 2020 after serving as Chairman and CEO of CL Securities Taiwan. Jenny Liu serves as COO after prior partnership at Deloitte & Touche. Jimmy Liu handles family office mandates following earlier roles at two Chinese family offices. Solaris maintains SFC regulatory licensing that enables both discretionary management and family office structuring services including trusts, insurance, tax planning, and CRS reporting. The Foxconn partnership supplies proprietary venture sourcing distinct from standard multi-family office mandates.
