Former Better Government Association CEO Andy Shaw lists Loop condo for nearly $600,000
Former WLS-Channel 7 political reporter and retired Better Government Association president and CEO Andy Shaw and his wife, Mary, in early June placed their two-bedroom, 1,430-square-foot condo on the 16th floor of a Loop tower on the market for $599,900. Shaw was an award-winning political reporter at ABC 7 for 25 years before changing careers and heading the BGA from 2009 until 2018. He and his wife paid $570,000 in 2018 for the Loop condo. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, however, Shaw told Elite Street that he and his wife had been living 'pretty much full-time' in their large house in southwest Michigan, and that the extra space in that home 'was perfect for accommodating kids and grandkids who came here for work, school and kid care help.' Then, with his only Chicago-based family moving from Logan Square to Hyde Park — an easy ride from Michigan — 'the condo became totally extraneous,' he added. Shaw's condo, which is in the Legacy at Millennium Park building, has two bathrooms, a den, plus south, east and west exposures. It also has a kitchen with Sub-Zero and Bosch appliances, along with granite countertops and a large breakfast bar. Shaw said he has nothing but praise for the building. 'We loved the location near restaurants, culture, entertainment and the CTA to everywhere, plus the great staff, amenities like a gym, pool, hot tub and library, and as for the comfortable unit — it has a guest bedroom, office and a view of Millennium Park and the lake,' he said. 'It's hard to beat.' Shaw said that his wife pointed out that 'with multiple intellectual, cultural and entertainment activities in the building, easy interior access to the University Club and proximity to excellent medical facilities, it would be a perfect building for aging-in-place. But COVID made our Michigan home a better choice.' Chuck Gullett of Best Chicago Properties LLC has the listing. The Shaws' unit had a $11,509 property tax bill in the 2023 tax year. It also comes with $1,054-a-month homeowners association dues.

Hong Kong Strikes Back: Billion-Dollar Insurers Face Pressure to Pull Capital Out of Singapore
Hong Kong regulators are dialing up quiet pressure on life insurers like AIA Group Ltd. (AIAGF) to shift investment decision-making back homeafter years of watching it gradually migrate to Singapore. People familiar with the situation say the Hong Kong Insurance Authority (HKIA) began engaging with insurers in early 2024, concerned about growing talent drain and concentrated capital risk as more firms favored Singapore's tax perks and flexible fund structures. While the relocations were allowed, the regulator has become increasingly active behind the scenesrequesting more visibility into where and how investment decisions are made. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 6 Warning Sign with AAIGF. At the center of this capital tug-of-war is AIA's Singapore-based unit, AIA Investment Management Private Ltd., which managed $139 billion at the end of 2024. The VCC structure gave it an operational edge, allowing AIA to shift global equities and private equity strategies south while keeping pensions anchored in Hong Kong. Insiders say high-level investment principles still come from Hong Kong, but it's the Singapore team that selects funds and talks to managers. The HKIA, invoking a guideline known as GL14, has begun examining whether ultimate mandate control remains in the cityand has privately discouraged at least one insurer from moving assets into Singapore's structures. There's no law forcing insurers to run portfolios from Hong Kong. But the HKIA has made its message clear: asset concentration overseas could raise red flags, especially if capital can't move easily in a crisis. Meanwhile, Singapore's Monetary Authority has defended the city-state's growth, attributing it to global demand and operational flexibility, not jurisdiction shopping. Still, with Hong Kong's regional HQ count dropping from 1,457 to 1,410 between 2021 and 2024, and Singapore gaining momentum, the pressure may be just beginning.
