To Our Valued Clients, Partners, and Colleagues,

 

As we take a moment to reflect on the year ended 31 December 2021, it is with a sense of cautious optimism and measured pride that we report a period marked by recovery and renewed momentum, during which Saichild Financial Holdings Limited successfully navigated a complex and rapidly evolving global landscape characterized by ongoing pandemic-related challenges, inflationary pressures, geopolitical tensions, and supply chain disruptions, all of which demanded not only rigorous discipline and deep analytical insight but also agility and adaptability in our investment approach.

 

Throughout this transformative year, our unwavering focus remained on identifying and supporting companies that exhibit robust fundamentals, sustainable competitive advantages, and long-term growth potential—particularly those positioned to benefit from accelerating secular trends such as digital transformation, innovative breakthroughs in healthcare, and shifting consumer behaviors—while simultaneously exercising prudent risk management to mitigate the impact of macroeconomic uncertainties and market volatility, thereby ensuring that our portfolio remains resilient across varying market conditions.

 

Our private investment activities gained renewed momentum as improving market conditions allowed for more active engagement and the pursuit of high-conviction opportunities that are carefully vetted to complement our public holdings and contribute to the overall diversification and long-term performance of our portfolio, reflecting our commitment to a holistic investment strategy that balances growth, risk, and liquidity considerations.

 

From an operational perspective, we continued to invest substantially in strengthening our infrastructure, enhancing our data analytics capabilities, and expanding client communication platforms to foster greater transparency, responsiveness, and partnership, while also dedicating significant resources to talent development and knowledge sharing within our team to maintain the highest standards of professionalism and innovation in an increasingly competitive landscape.

 

Financially, we are pleased to report that Saichild closed 2021 with Assets Under Management totalling USD185 million, a testament to the resilience of our investment framework, the strength of our client relationships, and the collective dedication of our team to delivering consistent, long-term value even amidst an environment of heightened uncertainty.

 

As we look ahead to the future, we remain committed to our foundational principles of disciplined capital allocation, rigorous risk oversight, and a partnership-driven approach, confident that these will continue to serve as the cornerstones of our success as we navigate the ongoing challenges and opportunities presented by the evolving global economy.

 

We thank our clients, partners, and stakeholders for their enduring trust and support, and we look forward to continuing this journey together in pursuit of sustained growth and shared prosperity.

 

​

Yours sincerely,

 

Paulus Saichild

Chief Executive Officer
