Capital Dynamics Sdn Bhd

From 1998 to Mar 2009, Capital Dynamics Asset Management Sdn Bhd gave a net compound revert of 19.78% yearly versus 3.16% per annum for the Kuala Lumpur Composite Index. Meanwhile, Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway has delivered annual returns of only 5% over that period.
Mr. Tan Teng Boo, the founder of Capital Dynamics, has been defined as one of the country’s iconoclastic thoughts in financial markets research and has been in comparison with the Oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffett, it’s no astonishing that Capital Dynamics Asset Management Sdn Bhd Tan Teng Boo has done it again.

His latest toy- the Australian Financial Service Licence he assured recently for his firm. Just how many Asian money directors would attempt such an achievement singularly in a foreign territory?

Renowned for his brilliant and eclectic style of investing, Tan is also noted for his critical writing and constant criticism of Malaysia’s past mismanagements, white elephant projects, and poor fiscal policies.

In fact, if one were to ignore the variables ( Buffet’s investment firm has a huge base and is largely exposed to the US market which has taken a major beating) and compare Tan’s performance with Warren Buffett’s in the last 10 times, Tan wins.

” I’m reasonably damn good at what I do. I would say I am one of the top five money directors in “the worlds”. It is a pity that people don’t really recognize that,” speaks Tan in such a matter-of-fact mode, that it’s almost hard to construe that as boasting.

Tan today has three monies operating in three countries investing in 42 countries. He speaks close to 300 annual reports a month and is incessantly on the lookout for undervalued companies.

Tan considers himself very lucky to be alive in this era when China is undergoing its stately financial and strength change. And his opinion on the market?

” We’re in the start of a bull market that will be led by China. There is no economy in this world that is stronger than the Chinese economy,” speaks Tan.

Capital Dynamics Sdn Bhd Biggest Achievement

For Tan, setting up Capital Dynamics (Australia) Ltd in Sydney is more than a mere business milestone.

With an initial paid up capital of A $500,000, Capital Dynamics (Australia) is targeting a money sizing of A $50 mil in the next 12 to 18 months for the I Capital International Value Fund.

Undeniably, it’s a huge accomplishment, but there’s a plainly deeper intending when Tan supposes the Australian license is one of his accomplishments he is most proud of.

For Tan, he encounters himself on a campaign which far outstrips his character as a money administrator. It is perhaps not surprising why Tan writes critically in his weekly iCapital newsletter.

Capital Dynamics is Asia’s firstly global money administrator and investment advisor with offices in Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Sydney, Hong Kong and Shanghai. It is an independent money manager and investment consultant, not tied to any bank, stockbroker or political organization. It currently oversees over US $300 mil.
