UNLOCKING THE VALUE OF ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENTS
At KWAP, we are always looking beyond the obvious as we seek to derive value from changing megatrends and shifts in consumption. In recent years, we have seen technology and digitalisation playing an immense role in meeting the changing preferences of consumers and this is where we believe many future investment opportunities will be.
DIVERSIFICATION - THE KEY TO SUSTAINABLE LONG-TERM INVESTMENTS
Diversification of our investments is an important strategy for KWAP to sustainably maximise our total returns. To improve our risk-adjusted returns, we make it a point to diversify our investment portfolio via allocations to a spectrum of asset classes. Within these asset classes, we further diversify our investments to different geographical locations across the globe.
