Value Partners Group Limited (SEHK: 0806) is a Hong Kong-based asset management company. As of 2012, it was the largest hedge fund in Asia.[1][2]

History

The company was founded in 1993 as a boutique firm by the present Chairman & Co-chief investment officer Dato' Cheah Cheng Hye, and businessman Yeh V-nee, a non-official member of the Executive Council of Hong Kong from 2009 to 2012.

Value Partners positions itself as a value investor and adopts value investing strategy for its funds. Headquartered in Hong Kong, Value Partners has offices in Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Taiwan and Singapore. It has a global client base and is regarded as one of Asia’s largest asset management firms [1] by the industry.

Value Partners was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (Stock code: 806 HK) in November 2007 and it is the first asset management firm listed in Hong Kong.

In 2015, the firm sold its 49 percent stake in Golden Capital Fund Management, a joint venture in China.[3] Value Partners lost 33.8 million yuan from the sale.[3] Some of its funds performed poorly that year because of the Chinese stock market.[4]
