Our Investment Philosophy

Long-only and Emerging Markets

01

Long-only

Concentrated long-only positions in US-listed equities, held over a multi-year horizon. The fund does not use leverage or short selling.

02

Emerging markets

Exposure is defined by where a company earns its revenue and growth, not where it is headquartered, with an emphasis on emerging markets.

03

Fundamental research

Every position rests on bottom-up analysis of business quality, growth drivers, and valuation, including currency and regulatory risk.

04

Nonprofit

Celadon operates as a nonprofit fund under Asian Leadership Initiative.
