Forbes Asia Editors’ Pick — China Wealth Creation: New Realities in 2022
SECURITY & TRANSPARENCY
The financial institutions that you trust for transaction, banking and the safe keeping of your assets are a very important pillar in your wealth management strategy. However, transparency and a clear cost-benefit relationship is often a challenge when evaluating these services.
Our financial advisory services are broad enough to offer clients a choice of some of the best custodian banks by balance sheet strength; alongside transparent and clearly defined flat fees or commissions at the most competitive prices.
TECHNOLOGY HARNESSED TO YOUR ADVANTAGE
Upgrading valuation and reporting systems to a more sophisticated architecture with the ensuing disruption of legacy systems requires substantial resources and costs that seem daunting to many large institutions. Thus, comprehensive investment reports are often inadequate.
Actual after-fee investment performance can often be a real mystery.
The aggregation of financial information and investment portfolios across various private banking and other investment services are expensive and time consuming tasks for even the very wealthy, who have independent experts for this.
We consolidate and present aggregated investment valuations for medium-term strategy reviews as well as more frequent risk monitoring.
Our considerable private client experience has shown that wealthy families work with a large number of financial service providers in order to benefit from distinct, yet complementary expertise.
The benefits of this approach come with an additional responsibility: that of aggregating the individual reports in order to review risk and performance for the entire wealth pool.
Family wealth that is segmented by the discrete individual risk profiles of more than one beneficiary requires aggregation as well. This is best fulfilled by an independent asset manager.
COHESION
A cohesive strategy that stays on target requires expertise and considerable time in order to ensure that the different components are aligned.
Our independence from a single private bank or custodian and our in-depth understanding of these challenges equip us with the skills to manage multiple banking relationships and evaluate risk and performance for a consistent implementation of your strategy over time and changing circumstances.

Discretionary Mandates
PERFORMANCE
Should you wish to delegate all investment decisions to us within a pre-determined set of risk reward parameters so that you can focus more on your professional and personal life, we accept discretionary asset management mandates.
As your wealth grows and your time gets ever more scarce, allocating wealth management to investment specialists and experts becomes an important part of your overall investment success.
Our professional expertise in portfolio management equips us to manage discretionary mandates for you based on your investment objectives and the relevant investment strategies we mutually agree upon.
Furthermore, since we are not constrained by contractual agreements with institutional managers, we select the most suitable discretionary mandates and best fund managers.
Where relevant, we could be a credible and reliable investment partner in the process of designing and managing investment strategies to satisfy long term goals in sync with shorter term performance objectives. This crucial service is often only available to private wealth with very substantial asset sizes.
Moreover, a lack of time coupled with natural human emotions of greed and fear compounds the challenge in achieving a sustainable investment outcome. In reality, after much investment activity, there are very few portfolios that can truly be proud of successful long term investment results over time.

INDEPENDENT STRATEGY
Transactions & custody of assets with a number of different financial services providers is, naturally, the optimal approach to diversification of both executions as well as product risks and opportunities.
Often, the consequences are an undesirable concentration of risk exposure and poor investment strategy implementation in portfolios. A panoramic & cohesive review takes as much expertise and effort as proper investment research and risk budgeting does.
