A family-controlled group rarely holds a single Chinese entity. It accumulates them — an operating company, a holding vehicle, a property-holding entity, something set up years ago for a project that has since changed shape — each with its own registration, filing calendar, and governance record, often established at different times through different agents with nothing shared between them.
We administer that set of entities as one engagement: a consolidated compliance calendar, governance records kept current across all of them, and one team that can answer for the whole picture. This is corporate administration, not wealth management — investment advice, asset management, and estate planning are separately licensed or reserved professions in China, and we neither hold ourselves out for them nor take them on.
Services in this practice area
Multi-Entity Administration
Administration of the several Chinese entities a family-controlled group ends up holding, run as one engagement rather than several unconnected ones.
- Every entity the group actually holds
- One consolidated compliance calendar
- Legacy and dormant entities addressed
- One accountable relationship
Family Entity Governance
Governance administration for family-held Chinese entities — resolutions, registers, and related-party documentation kept in order across the group.
- Decisions evidenced, not remembered
- Related-party arrangements documented as they happen
- Registers current across the group
One coordinated engagement across the group
A family group's entities are usually administered as isolated relationships, which reproduces the exact coordination gap the family is trying to escape: one entity's deadline is tracked because someone happens to own it, another quietly is not, and nobody is looking at the group as a whole.
We treat the group as one portfolio with one calendar. Where a question turns on investment, tax planning, or succession, it goes to the family's own qualified advisors — we coordinate with them and administer the result, rather than offering a view we are not licensed to stand behind.
Why choose HainanInc?
One accountable team
A single point of contact carries your engagement from first filing through to ongoing compliance — not a rotating cast of specialists.
Documented calendars
Every recurring obligation is tracked to a date, not a quarter, so nothing lapses unnoticed.
Built for administrative reality
Filing sequences and document chains are built around how Hainan's processes actually run, not the published version of them.
Fixed-scope engagements
You know what is included, and what it costs, before work starts — not after an invoice arrives.
Direct access to the people doing the work
Questions go to the team handling your filing, not to an account manager relaying them onward.
Substance-first structuring
Advice accounts for what regulators actually look for when reviewing qualification, not only what qualifies on paper.
