Shortly before his death, Forbes listed him 58th wealthiest in the world and 3rd in Hong Kong with US$16.6 billion,[1] and was at one time listed by Bloomberg as high as 34th.[5][6]
Cheng also served on the board of Hang Seng Bank, Hong Kong's third-largest bank.
He represented the Kingdom of Bhutan in Hong Kong, serving as the honorary consul for the country.
He had four children, the eldest of whom, Henry Cheng, born 1946, is chairman of New World Development and related businesses.[7]

Cheng spent the last four years of his life in bed after suffering a brain haemorrhage in 2012 and undergoing a major operation. He was unconscious before he died.[6]
