Who we are?
- CHN Investment Management Ltd (CHN IM) was formed following two years of hard work, after undergoing a vigorous vetting process with the Financial Conduct Authority.
- The discretionary permissions awarded mean that CHN IM are able to act as a Discretionary Fund Manager (DFM).
What do we do?
- Adopt a tactical approach to asset allocation
- Invest predominantly in active funds for the purpose of delivering favourable long-term risk adjusted returns.
- Amount invested depends on the asset weightings of the chosen Risk grade and these are rebalanced regularly.
- Reviewed and managed by an investment committee who can modify the asset weightings in response to anticipated market environment and changes, subject to a disciplined risk- controlled framework.

- You will not have to sign authority letters for fund switches as this will be managed on your behalf
- Reviews will take place quarterly
- The discretionary style of the solution means that we have the ability to respond to market events and conduct ad-hoc reviews if it was deemed necessary by the investment committee; and are able to swiftly react and implement changes (in comparison to an advisory model)
