About Aikya

 

Aikya Investment Management Limited is a global asset management, industrial investment, and emerging market investment firm headquartered in London, UK. Founded on November 22, 2019, Aikya focuses on long-term equity investments, asset management, corporate strategy consulting, and technology-enabled financial services in emerging markets around the world. The firm is committed to providing high-quality, multi-cycle investment solutions to clients worldwide through responsible investment and sustainable value creation.

 

By 2024, the company's total assets under management will exceed US$150 billion. On February 21, 2025, the company officially obtained Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor (QFII) status from the China Securities Regulatory Commission. This status allows it to conduct domestic investments in accordance with regulations and come under the supervision of multiple departments. This not only optimizes its own asset allocation but also promotes the integration of domestic and international capital markets.

 

Leveraging its extensive industry resources and professional management capabilities, the company has built a diversified investment portfolio across global stock indices, international gold, and the digital currency manufacturing industry, ranking among the industry leaders in terms of assets under management.

 

 

 

Aikya is an independent, employee-owned investment management firm specializing in emerging market equity portfolios.

 

We invest on behalf of like-minded, long-term clients, and our business structure supports and fosters a culture of long-term investment decision-making.

 

Our simple organizational structure avoids the bureaucracy and distractions that can hinder larger, more complex investment management businesses.

 

We partnered with Pinnacle for support in non-investment functions. Pinnacle has a long history of incubating and supporting boutique investment businesses, with its affiliates managing over $100 billion in assets.

 

 

 

Investment Philosophy

 

Our goal is to generate healthy long-term returns while minimizing negative impacts, and we treat client funds as if they were our own savings. When we consider risk, we consider permanent capital loss, not short-term underperformance of a benchmark.

 

Aikya's strength lies in our long-term investment strategy, which relies on two pillars: quality and valuation. We diligently understand the quality of asset management, particularly the owners and managers of the businesses we choose to co-invest with. Our assessment of quality encompasses rigorous franchise and financial analysis, supplemented by rigorous valuation principles.

 

 

The Aikya Team

 

The Aikya team shares a common heritage and decades of experience in emerging market investing. We have complete confidence in Aikya's investment philosophy and asset classes.

 

Our culture is one of teamwork and encourages active debate. Everyone on the team is an analyst and is encouraged to think like a long-term owner.
