HK’s Best Known Activist Investor Addresses a Packed House

Members of Hong Kong’s financial community crowded into the Foreign Correspondents’ Club on Monday to hear the city’s most famous activist investor David Webb speak at what was labelled a “Farewell Fireside Chat.”

Demand was so high the FCC extended the lunch event to all three restaurants in its historic clubhouse in the heart of the city, with at least 230 people attending. Webb announced in February he had months left to live after battling prostate cancer.
