methodology:wind image + IPS (Investment Policy Statement)

We deliver with the main line of "Risk Profiling - Constraints - Asset Stratification (Bucket) - Portfolio Construction - Governance and Review (Governance)"。

1) wind image:Not only looking at questionnaire scores,Look more at verifiable financial facts (cash flow stability、Liability structure、business relevance、Currency exposure、Maximum tolerated drawdown and recovery period)。

2) IPS Core Terms(Auditable、executable):

  • 目标:Value addition/value preservation/cash flow/hedging (multiple targets can be combined)
  • risk budget:Retracement limit、fluctuation tolerance range、dependency constraints
  • Liquidity:T+0/T+7/T+30 funding ratio,Emergency pool rules
  • Currency:base currency、Hedging ratio、Match overseas payments with rigid expenditures such as education/immigration
  • rebalance:Threshold triggering in parallel with periodic triggering (e.g. deviation of ±5% or quarterly review)
  • Product and transaction restrictions:Concentration、credit rating bottom line、Leverage and Derivatives Usage Scope
  • Information Disclosure and Compliance:Account ownership、Beneficiary information、CRS caliber consistency requirements
Governance points:IPS is not a "template",It is the compliance basis for all future investment behaviors.:When the market fluctuates or personnel changes,IPS can reduce arbitrariness in decision-making,and provide a consistent chain of interpretation for audit/tax calibers。
