About Kz1 Family Office
The KZ1 Family Office is the single-family office of the Zhou family, headquartered in Shanghai, China. Its origins trace to Shanghai in 1989, when the enterprise was led by "Zhou Senior," a timber expert. It has since expanded well beyond that original trade into life science, biotech, fintech and banking, blockchain and web3, asset management, and commodity trading. The office is chaired and led by Guren "Bobby" Zhou, who holds an MSc in Financial Management and also serves as CEO of Royal Privilege Group Investments and a board member of Klickl Group in Abu Dhabi. A third-party estimate places assets under management at roughly $300 million. Bobby Zhou has been the subject of a UK money-laundering investigation opened in 2021, which has been reported as remaining active.
