THE CURRENT bear market presents a golden opportunity for investors with a long-term horizon to seek value investments and ride on an eventual economic recovery.
With this in mind, Taifook Securities Group Limited and Aries Consulting are organising the inaugural Institutional Investor Conference in Hong Kong on 20 April (Monday). (Aries Consulting is the Hong Kong subsidiary of Singapore's largest IR specialist, the Financial PR Group.)
The organisers seek to help bring confidence back to the Hong Kong and Singapore markets by showcasing 14 companies - including Hi-P International, Yangzijiang Shipbuilding and China Kangda, which are listed in Singapore - that remain positive about their mid-and long-term business prospects.
These 14 companies from Hong Kong and Singapore were handpicked by Taifook Research from the infrastructure, consumer, shipping, property and technology sectors. More than 40 fund managers based across Asia Pacific are expected to attend. Qualifying Domestic Institutional Investors (QDIIs) from China will also be there. 
Mr Peter Wong, Group Managing Director and Chief Executive of Taifook Securities Group Limited, said, “We strongly believe in the fundamentals of the Hong Kong and China economies. We are confident that a number of well-managed listed companies with a China presence will outperform their peers when the economy recovers.
"Hence, the theme of the conference – “Winners After The Crisis”. There couldn’t be a better time than now to take a close look at these great companies!”
Said Ms Kathy Zhang, Managing Director of Aries Consulting and Financial PR Group: “Leveraging on Financial PR Group’s extensive experience in organizing investor conferences in Shanghai, Hong Kong and Singapore, we are pleased to have this opportunity to work with one of Hong Kong’s leading broking houses.
" We all share the belief that China will be the powerhouse of the future.
We look forward to promoting good companies to the fund managers with Taifook Securities.”
Said Mr Marco Mak, Managing Director, Taifook Research Limited: “We have studied, analyzed and handpicked these “winners” from the infrastructure, consumer, property, technology, healthcare and utility sectors.
"They are the leaders in their respective fields with distinctive competitive advantages and strong balance sheets, which would enable them to outperform their peers in the middle to long term. The positive response from overseas and local investors has affirmed our belief in the quality of these companies.”
