What is a Private Investment Office?

 

A private investment office is a holistic investment management solution, dedicated to serving the specific needs of families, individuals, corporations, foundations and institutions. The model enables clients to outsource their investment requirements to a specialist team of experienced international investment experts, delivering global investment standards with a best in class local service. Clients are provided with a direct point of contact at TCK in order to discuss and define their investment objectives, risk tolerance and liquidity requirements. Risk management is an integral part of our approach. This bespoke service extends beyond investment objectives through our commitment to best-in-class client servicing – providing clients with up-to-date analysis, real-time investment performance, market commentary and a model that is flexible to changes in client circumstances. At TCK, our private investment office is committed to providing access to the best investment opportunities in Korea and the world, investing on behalf of our clients with the same approach as the smartest investors in the world.

Private investment offices have been managing investments on behalf of wealthy families in mature markets such as North America for generations. Having spent a significant amount of time in Korea, the founders of TCK developed a deep personal network as well as growing admiration of Korea’s dynamic culture, its innovative industries, and the impressive economic growth. These characteristics inspired their decision to launch TCK in Korea.
