JVSakk Group is best described in five corporate principles – The Five
Simplicity
JVSakk employs a flat hierarchical structure to ensure that every player in the team exerts their best efforts to improve operational efficiency. In turn, overall efficiency is boosted and effected in the decision making process.
Transparency
We maintain high transparency to existing and potential investors, providing various means to facilitate communications, current trading practices and performances. Market commentaries are distributed to investors on a regular basis. Through effective communications, JVSakk aims to establish robust ties and strong trust with existing and potential investors.
Discipline
Our disciplined portfolio managers are adhering to professional ethics in determining trading limits. Excellent fund management will extract the Alpha without taking unintended risks. Risk limit is further reinforced by our monitoring mechanism carried out by our independent risk management team. The risk management team has stringent control on cross border risk, compliance risk, operational risk, liquidity risk, credit risk and market risk.
Innovative
We use an innovative, sophisticated and comprehensive asset management process. By implementing multiple trading models, we stay ahead of the competition seeking to achieve extraordinary risk-adjusted returns in each of its investment disciplines. We make use of the advantages that hedge funds have over traditional long-only funds - using long/short positions, derivatives, leverage, distressed securities, arbitraging market inefficiencies and seizing opportunities which would otherwise not be available if the investments were not in the alternative world.
Flexibility
An appropriate investment strategy starts with detailed planning. Every investor differs, therefore appropriate asset allocation is needed to suit your own personal investment requirements. At JVSakk, we offer a range of investment solutions to accommodate investor risk profiles to allow you to build your own individual portfolio that matches your expected risk-return profile.
