Indosuez Wealth Management, the global wealth management brand of Crédit Agricole Group, launched the Asia edition of its Indosuez Academy at INSEAD's Asia Campus in Singapore. The programme, themed "Leading with Intent and Purpose," ran from 26 to 29 October 2026.
Why it matters
The programme targets the children and grandchildren of the bank's clients as Asia undergoes a large intergenerational wealth transfer. It was designed by Indosuez in partnership with INSEAD to prepare heirs for the responsibilities of managing family wealth.
The four-day Asia edition ran from 26 to 29 October 2026 at INSEAD's Singapore campus. Participants came from Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Europe and America, and the total headcount was not disclosed.

Timeline

26 to 29 October 2026: Asia edition held at INSEAD Asia Campus in Singapore.
Roadmap
Asia's intergenerational wealth transfer is pushing private banks to prepare heirs earlier for managing family assets. Indosuez's Academy extends its first edition, held in France the prior year, into this market.
Families with wealth to pass on can use programmes like this to prepare the next generation for financial decisions. The format focuses on governance and leadership rather than investment products alone.
The takeaway
Preparing heirs early for wealth management appears to be a growing focus for private banks in Asia. Families considering similar planning can look for programmes that cover governance and crisis communication alongside investment knowledge.
