Cosmopolitan International Holdings

What Cosmopolitan International Holdings does

Cosmopolitan International Holdings Limited (HKEx: 0120; Chinese: 四海國際集團有限公司) is a Hong Kong-listed property development and investment company founded in 1991 as Cosmopolitan Properties & Securities Limited. Since September 16, 2013, it has operated as a listed subsidiary within the Century City Group ecosystem, sitting beneath P&R Holdings, Paliburg Holdings (0617.HK), and Regal Hotels International Holdings (0078.HK), with Century City International Holdings as the ultimate parent. The company's stated main business comprises property development and investment focused on the People's Republic of China, plus financial assets and other investments.

The company's core activities are large-scale integrated real estate developments across three PRC focal cities — Chengdu (Xindu District, ~3,000 residential units plus a five-star hotel, Grade A offices, shopping center and serviced apartments), Tianjin (Hedong District, ~517 residential units across two towers of 180m and 100m, plus a retail shopping center), and Urumqi (Midong District, an integrated resort with lake-front areas, cultural zones, forest sports, resort hotels, and low-density villas). It is closely affiliated with the Regal Hotels portfolio of 25 hotels with over 9,300 rooms in Hong Kong and Mainland China, including the award-winning Regal Airport Hotel, though direct hotel operations sit with Regal Hotels International and Regal REIT. Additional Hong Kong residential and commercial assets (Regal Manor, South Bay, Paliburg Plaza and others) are part of the broader shareholder property portfolio.

Cosmopolitan monetizes via three revenue streams: (1) one-time property development and sales of residential and commercial units in its PRC projects, with phased cash flow supporting long-term operational assets; (2) recurring hotel operations revenue through affiliation with the Regal Hotels brand (accommodation, F&B, meetings and events, including managed/licensed properties); and (3) financial assets and other investments managed through large reputable investment managers. The go-to-market combines direct on-site sales offices in Chengdu, Tianjin, and Urumqi targeting high-net-worth individuals and institutional investors, with brand marketing and cross-selling through the Century City Group network. Headquartered at 68 Yee Wo Street, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, the company is led by Chairman and CEO Lo Yuk Sui, with Vice Chairmen Jimmy Lo Chun To and Lo Po Man, COO Kenneth Wong, and CFO Kelvin Leung overseeing operations.
