Carson Yeung Ka Sing (Chinese: 楊家誠; born 27 February 1960) is a Hong Kong businessman who, until February 2014, was the president of English football club Birmingham City F.C., and chairman and an executive director of Birmingham International Holdings (previously Grandtop International Holdings), an investment, entertainment and sportswear firm registered in the Cayman Islands, which owns that club. He is also a director of Universal Energy Resources Holdings and Universal Management Consultancy Ltd.

In March 2014, Yeung was convicted on five counts of money laundering and sentenced to six years' imprisonment. He is currently serving his sentence after the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal rejected his final appeal.
