Portfolio construction, held to a long-term standard.

Ivan Cai has spent over a decade in investment management and portfolio construction. He builds and manages diversified portfolios end to end — asset selection and underwriting, capital allocation and position sizing, through to risk management and value realisation across market cycles.

His track record is in real assets. Starting from a 2017 thesis in Singapore industrial property, he has built and manages a diversified real-asset portfolio exceeding SGD 40 million — 23 industrial properties and 2 shophouses in Singapore, plus residential and commercial holdings in the United Kingdom and Malaysia. The discipline is portfolio-level throughout: diversifying across asset classes, geographies and cycles rather than concentrating risk, and balancing income against capital growth while managing leverage, liquidity and concentration.

His method is data-driven and research-led — finding value in mispriced or underutilised assets and pairing it with a strict risk framework. Every position is judged by what it adds to the whole: risk-adjusted return, resilience across cycles and the efficient use of capital.
