HONG KONG<\/span>, March 9, 2026<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — OP Investment Management (“OPIM”) entered 2025 with strong momentum and exited the year having reached a new phase of scale, relevance, and institutional reach.\u00a0Building on its position as Asia’s leading institutional fund platform, OPIM expanded both the\u00a0breadth of its investment strategies\u00a0and the\u00a0depth of its regional footprint, reinforcing its role as a primary gateway for alternative managers seeking professional and institutional capital across Asia.<\/p>\n

Platform Growth and Strategy Expansion<\/b><\/p>\n

Throughout 2025,\u00a0OPIM successfully launched over 18 investment strategies and signed 17 new managers, reflecting sustained demand from allocators for diversified, Asia-centric sources of alpha. These strategies spanned\u00a0macro, quantitative, and equity long short approaches, forming a deliberately balanced mix designed to perform across market regimes.<\/p>\n

This expansion was not opportunistic, but intentional.\u00a0Strategy selection focused on managers with differentiated processes, institutional readiness, and the ability to scale alongside growing allocator requirements. As a result, OPIM further strengthened its reputation as a\u00a0curator of institutional-grade alternatives, rather than a simple distribution platform.<\/p>\n

Mainland China & Hong Kong: Renewed Confidence and On the Ground Access<\/b><\/p>\n

The\u00a0China market demonstrated a marked resurgence in investor confidence during 2025, following a robust recovery that began in 2024. In 2025, HSI delivered 27.8% return, one of its best years since 2017, driven by southbound Stock Connect inflows, AI-related optimism and falling global interest rates. China A-shares also had a strong year, with CSI 300 returning 17.7%, supported by policy easing and improving risk sentiment. Reflecting this momentum,\u00a0OPIM added 10 new China-focused strategies, deepening its onshore and offshore coverage and reinforcing its longstanding commitment to the region.<\/p>\n

For global allocators navigating China’s reopening and structural realignment,\u00a0OPIM’s local presence and manager network provided differentiated access\u00a0to investment teams operating at the intersection of policy, liquidity, and opportunity. This positioning enabled allocators to participate selectively and thoughtfully as confidence returned to the market.<\/p>\n

Korea: Capturing a Historic Market Re-Rating<\/b><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, OPIM prepared to onboard its\u00a0seventh Korean manager, capitalising on a landmark year for the Korean equity market. In 2025, the\u00a0KOSPI delivered a +75.6% return, its strongest performance since 1999, driven by corporate governance reform, improved capital discipline, and renewed global interest.<\/p>\n

As international attention returned to Korea,\u00a0OPIM’s platform enabled allocators to access local managers best positioned to benefit from this structural re-rating, offering exposure aligned with both reform momentum and long-term institutional themes.<\/p>\n

Scale, Pipeline, and Forward Visibility<\/b><\/p>\n

By year-end,\u00a0over 50 strategies were live on the OPIM platform, underscoring the firm’s continued scalability and operational depth. Momentum carried into 2026 with\u00a0three funds already launched\u00a0and a\u00a0pipeline of 10 additional strategies scheduled across the first and second quarters, providing strong visibility into near-term growth.<\/p>\n

Capital Markets Momentum and Institutional Services<\/b><\/p>\n

With Hong Kong projected to see\u00a0up to HKD 350 billion in IPO fundraising across approximately 150 new listings, OPIM continued to prepare new strategies and partnerships to support a new generation of family offices and professional allocators navigating active capital markets.<\/p>\n

At the same time, OPIM’s\u00a0award-winning middle and back-office platform expanded its compliance and investor relations capabilities, supporting emerging and scaling managers as they pursue international mandates. This integrated infrastructure remains a key differentiator, enabling managers to focus on investment performance while meeting rising institutional standards.<\/p>\n

Thought Leadership, Content, and Community Engagement<\/b><\/p>\n

In 2025, OPIM further strengthened its role as a\u00a0convener of institutional dialogue across Asia. The\u00a0Alpha Uncovered<\/i>\u00a0podcast released\u00a012 new episodes, featuring institutional investors, veteran fund managers, and industry experts, bringing the firm’s content library to\u00a0over 40 videos.<\/p>\n

In parallel, OPIM\u00a0hosted 10 live events at its new office\u00a0and participated in\u00a0more than 40 collaborations across Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, reinforcing its position at the centre of Asia’s allocator and manager ecosystem.<\/p>\n

Looking Ahead<\/b><\/p>\n

As OPIM looks toward the remainder of 2026,\u00a0the firm remains focused on scaling proven models, deepening allocator relationships, and supporting managers who consistently outperform. By combining institutional grade infrastructure, regional insight, and a growing global network,\u00a0OPIM is well positioned to help shape the next chapter of Asia’s alternative investment landscape.<\/p>\n
