TT is an investment management firm specialising in managing portfolios for institutional investors.
TT’s principal area of focus involves managing investment portfolios of equity long-only and long-short
strategies.
TT International was organised in 1993 as a general partnership with unlimited liability under the
Partnership Act of England and Wales (1890). After 27 years of being structured as an unlimited
liability partnership, in early 2020 TT was acquired by Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group (“SMFG”), a
leading Japanese bank. As a result of this transaction, TT changed its legal form from a partnership to
a private limited company – TT International Asset Management Ltd – which is 100% owned by SMFG.
TT’s primary place of business is in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”). TT is authorised and regulated in the
conduct of investment business by the Financial Conduct Authority, the sole regulator of investment
business in the U.K. TT is also registered with the SEC and files notice with several U.S. states.
We maintain a branch office in the U.S. at 400 Madison Avenue, Suite 14-C, New York, NY 10017. Our
U.S. branch office serves as a relationship management base for our North American clients.
Through a wholly owned subsidiary, TT International (Hong Kong) Limited, we maintain a third office
in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region: 20/F, 18 On Lan Street, Central, Hong Kong. The Hong
Kong office serves as a base for our Asia Pacific portfolio management, trading, client services and
sales activities.
TT established TT International Investment Management LLP to manage alternative investment funds
for TT under the AIFMD. It was authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority on 18th July 2013. TT
and TT International Investment Management LLP share personnel and facilities pursuant to a Services
Agreement that has been prepared, adopted, and implemented in accordance with applicable
regulatory guidance.
As of 31st December 2022, we managed approximately US$ 8.06 billion of client assets, all on a
discretionary basis.
In general, TT engages in long-only and long-short investment strategies across multiple sectors. TT
offers access to these strategies through investment vehicles (“Funds”) and separate accounts
