CK Asset Holdings is one of Hong Kong's top property developers. Li has served as senior adviser since 2018, when he retired from the business he built. His family and trust still owns just over 32% of the company.
Li recently added his voice to calls for calm in Hong Kong as pro-democracy protests reach their 11th consecutive week. "In the name of love, please turn away from anger," read an advertisement Li placed in several local newspapers on Friday.
CK Asset Holdings also joined more than a dozen companies in signing a statement strongly condemning violent protests in the city.
