The portfolio is available only to professional and accredited investors in Hong Kong and Singapore, the firm said in a statement yesterday. 

As interest rates begin to ease globally and the yields of traditional income products diminish, investors are continuing to search for dependable income without taking on excessive concentration risk, it said. 

The Endowus Income Enhanced Portfolio is designed to cover two approaches – Income Enhanced Conservative, which seeks to offer a more resilient and reliable income strategy; and Income Enhanced Aggressive which aims to capture higher potential income while voiding the pitfalls of narrow market exposure. 

The portfolio can deliver these differentiated approaches by working with specialised fixed income managers including Algebris Investments, Barings, Man Group, RBC BlueBay and UBP Asset Management, among others, it said.

Endowus has entities licensed by the Securities & Futures Commission of Hong Kong and Monetary Authority of Singapore. It was founded in 2017 and has raised a total of more than $130 million in funding from investors including UBS, EDBI, Prosus Ventures, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Citi Ventures, MUFG Innovation Partners, Singtel Innov8, Samsung Ventures, SBVA, Illuminate Financial, OSK Ventures, Z Venture Capital, and ACF – a joint venture between JLIN LLC and The Wells Investments.
