Asia ex-Japan Equity
HSBC Asset Management’s Asia ex-Japan equity franchise operates under a diverse global equity platform with dynamic, bottom-up-style investment teams possessing local and specialist knowledge. We are committed to delivering high-conviction strategies focused on long-term performance and sustainable growth.
Our philosophy
We believe that Asian stock markets are inefficient, driven by short-term noise and sentiment. We seek to generate alpha by investing in companies aligned with secular growth trends that should drive significant and persistent growth over a multi-year horizon.
Our process
- The Asia ex-Japan Equity strategy is a large-cap-focused high-conviction strategy, with a bottom-up approach and a focus to invest in companies aligned with secular growth trends, which have yet to be discounted in valuation
- We aim to control unwanted macro and style risk exposures through a laser focus on portfolio construction, with returns expected to originate primarily from stock selection. This is especially important in volatile markets – we apply proprietary models to control our factor exposures and macro sensitivity such that majority of the risk of the portfolio is idiosyncratic and which is within our control
- The strategy employs continuous monitoring/reassessment of risk at the stock and portfolio level
HSBC strengths
