Business Values

Values are the fundamental beliefs of an organization, the guiding principles that dictate how people should behave and act. Though there are many attributes associated with us, we place the utmost trust and conviction in the following -

FLEXIBLE AND OPPORTUNISTIC

We believe that market momentums can be deceiving at times as markets are not 100% efficient in the short term and they are often marred by price dislocation or disequilibrium. Our blue-sky thinking approach empowers us to take advantage of such dislocations without compromising on the quality of our investments and in the process enhancing returns for our clients.

SYNERGISM

Whether it is internal or external harmony and synergism are of utmost value to us. We prefer to sink and swim with our clients; we do not endorse any investment for our clients in which we cannot invest our own money. We always have our own skin in the game and that is a reflection of our confidence in our abilities and also our unflinching and unwavering commitment to our clients.

STEWARDSHIP

The onus is entirely on us when the clients trust us with their hard-earned money. With our established principles and investment philosophy, we ensure that the investments are absolutely suitable to the client’s needs and yet are perfectly aligned with the markets and the macros. We consider it nothing less than an absolute fiduciary responsibility to deliver on the client’s goals and always have the client’s interests foremost in our collective psyche before taking any investment or business decision.

QUALITY

We aim to be an extremely quality conscious and a quality-driven organization. Whether it is our customers or any other stakeholders we maintain global standards in all aspects of our interactions with our stakeholders. Our quest for quality is reflected in the choices we make while building our clients’ portfolios. We always go with the lowest cost alternatives and yet ensuring ease of entry and exits and also liquidity and transparency. Similar quest for quality is reflected in our core operations, back-office and all other deliverables across our stakeholders.
