Yangzijiang Financial Holding (YZJFH) , recently spun out of Yangzijiang Shipbuilding (Holdings) , is betting on its years of expertise in the maritime and manufacturing industry to carve a niche for itself in the asset management space.
“Our biggest unique factor is that we never left our original competencies in the maritime and construction industries,” executive chairman Ren Yuanlin told The Business Times in Mandarin in a recent interview.
That, and the investment manager’s ability to exploit opportunities in and outside of China, is how it plans to stand out from its peers, added chief executive officer Vincent Toe.
