Boutique firm’s mission to compound wealth through equities is off to a strong start

FOR the entrepreneurs behind boutique fund-management firm Arkenomics Capital, the investing rulebook seems simple: Buy stocks that show the hallmarks of value – strong balance sheets, low price-earnings multiple, high cash flow, good dividends.

Then, hold and let compounding do its magic. This, however, is a challenge for most individual investors.

Arkenomics’ founders Dinesh Advani and Peter Lum pursue a single strategy for their sole fund, the Arkenomics Provident Fund, seeded in October 2022 with S$10 million of their own capital.
