Our Investment Philosophy
Our investment philosophy is the guiding principle of everything we do. We have an unwavering commitment to our four key principles.
What: Global opportunities
Portfolios with global exposure can benefit from the broad opportunity set of global markets. With the global reach of HSBC, we can deliver these opportunities to you.
How: Disciplined approach
A sound investment strategy needs to be designed around you, incorporate long-term and short-term market opportunities, be implemented with your preferences in mind, and regularly reviewed.
Who: Open architecture
We believe expertise is critical to successful investing. We draw from a broad spectrum of HSBC and third-party talent when identifying investments suited to your needs.
Risk management
We use the principles of diversification and strategic asset allocation with the aim of shaping portfolios that deliver attractive potential rewards compared to the inherent risks.
