Our funds are at the cutting edge of applying sophisticated finance tools in the China markets. Our focus is the pursuit of potentially attractive investment opportunities uncorrelated with the general market directions. The firm"s investment activities are divided into two broad categories— structured investment driven by the firm’s coverage and research; and absolute return strategies based on the firm’s proprietary Alpha models.
The firm is considered as a leader in research and analysis of China markets. Combined with its extensive coverage of banks in China, the firm is positioned to identify and capitalize on the optimal investment opportunities for international institutional investors.
Quantitative techniques are the driving force behind the firm"s absolute return strategies, and are used to identify underpriced and overpriced securities, to manage various forms of portfolio risk, and to reduce the transaction costs. While rigorous human effort is invested conducting scientific research in each of these areas, the firm"s quantitative strategies are largely based on mathematical models embodied in computer software rather than on human judgments regarding the fundamental soundness of the underlying companies or other assets.
