“We are launching our retail presence in Hong Kong by introducing some of our core funds to the market.” Guy Strapp, Regional Head of Investment Management said about the launch, “These funds have a history of consistent performance and will provide Hong Kong investors with access to global equity markets to help diversify investment portfolios.”<\/p>\n
