TVC pursues a long-only, absolute-return, non-leveraged strategy in investing in Asian equities ex-Japan and ex-Australia.  TVC's asset allocation is determined via a "top-down" macro approach in assessing the most attractive equity markets from productive and stable Asian economies; after which a "bottom up" discipline and a "value approach" are adopted in selecting attractively priced and/or undervalued companies with strong prospective earnings growth patterns.

A balance of concentration and diversification in the asset allocation mix is key depending on the investment climate.  Having the mandate to invest on a discretionary basis adds a degree of comfort to TVC's investment management style during volatile times in particular. During crisis periods, TVC can go to a heavy cash position not only to better protect clients’ capital and portfolios but to be adequately capitalised for the subsequent emerging opportunities post-crises.

TVC takes a comprehensive approach to risk management, assessing not only the financial performance but also the qualitative factors of underlying investments. We incorporate ESG research into our investment process to prioritise long-term value creation and to mitigate future-facing risks.
