Portfolio Recommendations: Shaw Capital Management Korea

Portfolio Recommendations: Shaw Capital Management Korea. Market Developments. Economies virtually everywhere have been recovering for some months, the question is what to do post-crisis. For some, like Ireland, Iceland and Latvia, there is little option but severe and immediate public sector retrenchment. For most however there is a choice: on the fiscal side
cuts (or tax rises) now, or later spread over a long period. On the monetary side, continued printing of money or cessation and even reversal. In fact this is one of those periods when the ‘independence’ of central banks, that is their independent authority to set interest rates and
the extent of money printing, is a disadvantage for the economy, all of which need at present careful coordination of monetary and fiscal policy.

Before Shaw Capital Management South Korea launched the open architecture revolution, investors had to make the unhappy choice between selecting an advisor who was independent, but unsophisticated (the traditional pension and endowment consulting firms), or selecting an advisor who was sophisticated but had conflicting interests (global banks, trust companies, money management firms).

Today, virtually all investors faced with the challenge of managing a significant pool of capital can access open architecture advice.
