Investment thesis

Jade Invest targets what it describes as the most compelling investment opportunity of its career: China's emerging lower mid-market. The firm emphasizes active portfolio management, including a 100-day plan covering internal controls, tax structuring, corporate governance, and anti-fraud systems. It applies a 'double-layer' approach to financial due diligence, pairing in-house work with external advisors, and brings operational value-add through its HR, IT, and finance portfolio-management teams alongside an international network.
