Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia – 5 June 2025 – Hong Leong Asset Management Bhd (HLAM), in collaboration with Hong Leong Bank Berhad (“Hong Leong Bank”) is pleased to introduce Hong Leong All Roads Funds—three multi-asset funds designed for Sophisticated Investors seeking a globally diversified portfolio, stability and risk-managed growth—whether they are conservative, balanced, or growth-oriented. The funds leverage the expertise of Lombard Odier, a globally renowned private bank and asset manager, as the strategic alliance partner of Hong Leong Bank and target fund manager.
The Hong Leong All Roads Funds are precisely tailored to meet the distinct needs of Sophisticated Investors, accommodating various risk profiles and return objectives. For those prioritising capital preservation and consistent, low-volatility returns, the Hong Leong All Roads Conservative Fund is designed for modest growth. Investors seeking a balance between growth and risk over the medium to long term will find the Hong Leong All Roads Balanced Fund suitable, offering higher return potential with moderate risk. Finally, the Hong Leong All Roads Growth Fund is ideal for Sophisticated Investors who are comfortable with higher risk and volatility, as it aims for aggressive growth and substantial returns.
Chue Kwok Yan, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of HLAM said, "In today's unpredictable financial landscape, Sophisticated Investors require solutions that offer both flexibility and resilience. The Hong Leong All Roads Funds are designed to meet these needs, where each fund employs a risk-based asset allocation strategy, ensuring dynamic adjustments to diverse market conditions while aligning with investors' financial objectives."
Exclusively distributed by Hong Leong Bank, the Hong Leong All Roads Funds are seamlessly integrated into its comprehensive ecosystem, allowing clients to access them through the Bank’s digital banking platform HLB Connect, vast network of branches and personalized consultations with Priority Banking Relationship Managers and Private Banking Client Advisors.
“As clients become more financially astute and aware that achieving and safeguarding their wealth demands a broader spectrum of financial products, we are dedicated to bringing them top-tier, sophisticated investment solutions and insights. These offerings are designed to equip them with the tools and knowledge to make informed decisions and navigate their financial journey with confidence. The Hong Leong All Roads Funds, born from these strategic partnerships, are a clear embodiment of this dedication, offering the essential solutions and world-class expertise our clients truly deserve,” said Kevin Lam, Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer at Hong Leong Bank.
The Hong Leong All Roads Funds benefit from the advice and expertise of Lombard Odier, an international private banking group with over 225 years of investment and wealth management experience. As a strategic alliance partner of Hong Leong Bank and the target fund manager, Lombard Odier provides bespoke asset management services for the Funds, including institutional-grade investment strategies.
Vincent Magnenat, Limited Partner, Asia Group Regional Head and Global Head of Strategic Alliances at Lombard Odier said: “We are pleased to collaborate with HLAM and Hong Leong Bank in relation to the All Roads strategy. As a strategic alliance of Hong Leong Bank, we have a shared vision of offering long-term, sustainable, and forward-looking solutions to local onshore investors.
