Investment Philosophy
SHARE THIS PAGE:
We only invest in what we believe and know. As stewards of our investors’ wealth, we hold fast to the simple principle of managing their money like we would our own.

David Ng, Deputy Managing Director & Chief Investment Officer

Our investment philosophy is premised upon delivering absolute return to investors over a 3-5 year investment horizon. We define absolute return performance as delivering positive performance through various market conditions (and not merely outperforming the benchmark).

By always putting our clients’ interest first, our robust investment processes has ensured that we preserve capital during large market drawdowns as well as generate alpha by picking out winners without taking excessive risk.
