Sean will work closely with the firm's Chief Investment Officer and veteran trader, Chua Soon Hock, in managing the firm's flagship macro hedge fund, Asia Genesis Macro Fund, which trades the most liquid exchange-listed futures and options contracts across stock indices, interest rates and foreign exchange.

Sean brings with him more than 15 years of experience in trading and investment management.

Prior to joining Asia Genesis, Sean was a Portfolio Manager at Tower Research Capital where he ran a portfolio of systematic strategies and traded across a wide spectrum of asset classes with an outstanding track record of consistent profitability, through major market events and periods of high volatility. Before this, Sean was a senior trader at Grasshopper Asia where he established a stellar track record of profitability with zero losing months during his 8 years with the firm, and was instrumental in driving trading and technological development across trading and risk management.

Sean spent the earlier parts of his career at HSBC and Morgan Stanley. "I am excited to be part of Asia Genesis during this period of strong growth and great opportunities for the firm. I look forward to working closely with Soon Hock and the team to deliver the ideal investment product that achieves investors' twin goals of capital preservation and positive annual compounding through steady uncorrelated returns with low downside volatility, across all-weather conditions." said Sean.

"Sean's extensive experience and established track record in trading and asset management across a wide spectrum of asset classes and products make him a valuable addition to our trading team and will be an asset, contributing to our long-term goal of achieving the best risk-adjusted returns among all macro managers globally", Soon Hock added.

The appointment of Sean further bolsters the firm's steady expansion across all core business domains - investment, operations and investor relations - and adds to its impressive list of experienced professionals with a total of 16 staff, with 6 on investments and 10 on operations and investor relations.

Asia Genesis Macro Fund returned +3.94% net Year-To-Date (estimated as of end March 2023), on the back of strong returns last year where the Fund achieved +15.32% for 2022.
