After founding two successful technology companies, one of which was sold to Verio and the other which went public on NASDAQ in 1999, our founder Dr. Hong Chen was surprised by the lack of understanding by the major investment banks in their dealings with Chinese firms and Chinese entrepreneurs. In parallel, the emerging status of China in the global marketplace had allowed many domestic Chinese companies to look outwards. With this increasing demand and severe gap in world class advisory services, Dr. Hong Chen founded the Hina Group to address this growing need.

The Hina Group brings together highly experienced Wall Street investment bankers with the CEOs of Chinese and US public companies to provide the best combination of world class financial advisory services with in depth knowledge of the local Chinese marketplace. We pride ourselves in our flawless execution, our wide reach throughout China and the world, and for delivering to our clients valuable services and perspectives for their success.

We combine our investment banking expertise with a seasoned investment team to create the best merchant bank in China. We strive to become the premier China focused cross-border investment banking and private equity firm.
