Eric Wong established TCG on behalf of his family in 2003 as an asset management and financial advisory firm focused on investments with superior risk adjusted returns that are uncorrelated to major asset classes and advising family office and corporate clients. TCG’s Celera division was formed in 2012 to consolidate and spin out the markets, technology, and business infrastructure of TCG.
Prior to TCG, Mr. Wong was involved with his family’s chemicals and electronics interests in Greater China which date back to 1918 in Shanghai, 1950 in Hong Kong and 1970 in Taiwan. He holds an M.S. in Biotechnology from the Kellogg Center for Biotechnology at Northwestern University, a B.A. in Molecular Biology from Pomona College and is FRM certified.
Uncorrelated return strategies aim to generate consistent returns with limited, or zero, correlation to any of the major asset classes of the financial markets. That means generating positive returns year after year while diversifying broadly to have low overall exposure to any single industry.
Speakers: Shalako Wiener, Dipak Jogia, Eric Wong, Asit Beesen, and Jeffrey Marron
