Asset Management, the asset management arm
of Ascend Asia Financial Services Group, has launched a
new credit-focused investment strategy for accredited investors
(AI). This new offer provides access to several funds
managed by investment firms, including global investment firm
KKR.
“We are proud to offer, for the first time, institutional-grade credit investing, traditionally available only to private banking clients, to AI clients of our member firms,” Tomas Urbanec, CEO, Ascend Asia, said. “This collaboration with KKR demonstrates how Ascend Asia unlocks opportunities for financial advisory firms and their consultants, and ultimately for their clients. Creating such access is at the core of our open-architecture model, and we will continue to empower member firms’ AI clients with best-in-class institutional expertise, strategies and solutions.”
“Through this new credit strategy, we are equipping member firms’ financial consultants with an institutional-grade product that offers greater choice and sophistication to their AI clients,” Faith Chen, CEO, Ascend Asia Asset Management, added. “It is designed to provide income-generating exposure to high-quality credit opportunities, enabling clients to participate in the region’s expanding credit investment landscape.”
