Our Fund
China’s onshore fixed income market has been accessible to foreign institutional investors since 2015, creating a large and diversified opportunity set that remains structurally under-allocated by global investors. Our mission is to deliver high-quality investment solutions to institutions seeking long-term exposure to this market.
Our investment philosophy is focused on generating sustainable total returns across market cycles while maintaining a strong emphasis on capital preservation. We seek to capture opportunities arising from interest rate movements, yield curve dynamics, credit differentiation, and policy-driven market dislocations, while proactively managing downside risks. Drawdown control is a core consideration in both portfolio construction and ongoing risk management.
We employ an active, risk-aware approach across all key dimensions of the portfolio, including duration, yield curve positioning, credit selection, liquidity management, currency exposure, and policy and regulatory risks. This holistic framework enables us to dynamically adjust portfolios as macroeconomic conditions and market structures evolve.
Our philosophy has been consistently applied since the launch of our fund in 2016 and has guided our investment decisions through multiple periods of market stress, including significant RMB depreciation (2022–2024), a sharp rise in U.S. interest rates (2021–2024), and elevated default risks among Chinese issuers. Throughout these challenges, our strategy has delivered strong USD-denominated returns while maintaining disciplined risk management.
