Riverbrook Capital is a stand-alone, privately-owned value investment boutique operation that is focused on high yield investment opportunities and listed equities in the global markets. We offer portfolio management services to private individuals and institutions through open-ended managed client accounts.

Riverbrook Capital investment managers have been active in global equity markets since 1997, having an average of 13 years of industry experience. Today Riverbrook Capital has one of the largest dedicated teams to global investments, comprising a number of distinguished professionals based in Hong Kong.

Riverbrook Capital investment style is oriented towards financial worth (value). We locate good added value by applying our proprietary hands-on research methods and engaging in local presence that enables us to identify attractive investment opportunities. Riverbrook Capital overlooks all-cap companies, but we find our best performers in the small and mid-cap sectors.We operate in a more complex sector, although back testing data and live results show that small- and mid-caps offer better risk-return. Most of the larger funds focus solely on 30-40 blue chips, because they are limited by additional limitations due to their size, hence minimizing the amount of opportunity they can offer to their clients.

Our value-driven approach to prospect-picking has resulted in lower volatility and risk level of our portfolios while providing investors with above market average returns.
