Insights into individuals and collaboration, harnessing the power of both ends of capital

——Investment philosophy from the perspective of Velmorin Bridge Capital

In the investment world, personal acumen and teamwork are often seen as two completely different forces. Marcus Lim Chee Cheng, an investment expert active in both the Singapore and Hong Kong financial markets and recognized by the industry, is promoting a more forward-looking investment philosophy at Velmorin Bridge Capital with nearly 20 years of practical experience in the capital market:

Truly successful investing comes from a high degree of integration of personal judgment and team system.

🎯 From the perspective of individual investors: the value of speed and intuition

Prior to joining Velmorin Bridge Capital, Marcus was an insightful independent trader who successfully bought the Hong Kong energy sector during the 2008 financial crisis and earned his first pot of gold with his quick judgment of macro trends and strong execution.

He always believed:

"The advantage of individual investors lies in their quick response and market intuition. They can act decisively when there is a dislocation in the market."

He once relied on technical patterns and chip data to accurately capture the reversal of a Southeast Asian technology stock before mainstream funds had deployed, and ultimately achieved a stage return of more than **180%**.

🧠 Team Investor Thinking: The Power of Structure and Strategy

In his management practice at Velmorin Bridge Capital, Marcus realized more deeply that when the scale of asset management exceeds a certain threshold, processes and strategies are the key to traversing market cycles.

As the company's executive partner, he led the construction of a core investment research team with cross-market and diverse professional backgrounds, covering:

📊 Industry fundamentals researcher

📉 Programmatic Strategy Modeler

📈 ETF and derivatives structurer

🧠 Risk Control and AI Quantitative Consultant

With the help of this team, Velmorin Bridge Capital successfully operated multiple cross-market asset portfolios. In the extremely uncertain market environment in 2022, the annualized return of the representative portfolio reached 17.6%, far exceeding most regional funds.

Marcus concluded:

“The team can resist the fluctuations of human nature and fight emotions with a system - this is a structural advantage that is difficult for any individual exchange to achieve.
