Diving into the art of alternative investments at this exclusive soirée

By Robb Report Singapore 10 October, 2023

A select group of Robb Report Singapore readers were invited to an exclusive dinner to delve into the art of alternative investments 

Robb Report Singapore hosted an intimate dinner, where a group of discerning readers embarked on a journey into the intricate realm of alternative investments. The stage was set at the enchanting Tamarind Hill, nestled within a historic colonial bungalow atop the pristine expanse of Labrador Nature Reserve. Wrapped in rustic-luxe decor, this elegant setting provided a unique backdrop for our guests to immerse themselves in a night of conversations about risk and practical investment approaches, untethered from the noise prevalent in today’s financial landscape

The art of alternative investments came to life under the knowledgeable guidance of Simon Lim, CEO of ZICO Asset Management. With an illustrious background spanning entrepreneurship, banking, and asset management, Lim brought a wealth of expertise to the table, particularly in the realm of risk management and practical investment approaches. As the evening unfolded, invigorating conversations at the dinner table were interspersed with a sumptuous feast prepared by Tamarind Hill’s kitchen and captivating whisky-tasting sessions courtesy of Havelock Spirits. Guests revelled in the privilege of savouring an exquisite array of collections, such as the distinguished Kinship Collection and The First Edition from Scotch whisky distiller Hunter Laing.
