About

Griffinest Asia Asset Management provides discretionary portfolio management, investment advisory services, and personal financial planning primarily for high‑net‑worth and qualified clients, alongside corporate and institutional accounts. The firm reports approximately $11.6 million in regulatory assets under management and serves a small client base through a team of six advisors.

The firm customizes portfolios to clients’ stated risk tolerance, time horizon, and objectives, implements strategies across a broad range of securities, and conducts quarterly portfolio reviews; it discloses material risks for foreign investments, high‑yield and small‑cap securities, and alternative assets. Accounts are generally managed on a discretionary basis, with GA using client questionnaires and interviews to develop investment policy and rebalance as needed.

Distinctive features disclosed in the brochure include an affiliation with a FINRA‑registered broker‑dealer, Griffinest Asia Securities, LLC (GASL), through which the firm may place client transactions and receive commission‑based compensation and other economic benefits, and two senior managers who devote roughly 70–80% of their time to broker‑dealer activities — a relationship the firm identifies as a conflict of interest. The firm also makes performance‑based fees available to qualified clients using a high‑water‑mark approach (with negotiated tiers up to a 20% cap) and presents some fee schedules in U.S. dollar equivalents, reflecting cross‑border or non‑U.S. client considerations.
