Merging local expertise with international best practice
At the core of our corporate culture is the notion that local expertise and international best practice are synergetic. Our long experience of investing in China, strong local presence and personal networks are all crucial to our ability to assess risk and make informed investment decisions. This, coupled with our codified and transparent investment process, flat team structure and uncompromising standards with respect to corporate governance, tax and regulatory compliance, make us a unique player in our market.
A culture of risk awareness
Most of our team members have experienced two severe global market downturns during their professional careers. As a firm, we went through the global financial crisis in the beginning of our existence. These experiences have manifested themselves throughout our investment process and corporate culture, from a high degree of independent data validation and referencing in our underwriting process, to a focus on businesses with operational solidity and resilience to business cycles and market shocks.
