About Peterson Group
Peterson is a family-owned private entrepreneurial company based in Hong Kong. Under the leadership of Peterson’s Chairman, Franco Yeung, the company has expanded over the past forty years from a humble trading company sharing a single desk to a thriving and diversified international group. Today Peterson has businesses in various sectors and different regions of the world, while remaining true to the fundamental values on which the company was founded: integrity, entrepreneurship, and partnership. As the company continues to evolve and expand, the third generation of the family has taken up the challenge of upholding these values in today’s complex global markets. To support Peterson’s growth, the company has built a talented young management team, able to work harmoniously with the family, and with the versatility to move between asset classes and adopt varying strategies dynamically in response to the ever-changing contemporary world. While well established, the company maintains a vigorous spirit of entrepreneurship, allocating capital to investment in businesses at different stages in frontier markets, and innovative new industries. This strategy of seeking opportunity amid diversity is underpinned by strong risk management, enabling Peterson to offset asset class, geographical, political and currency risks effectively. As Peterson is a private company, the management enjoys wide flexibility in its investment strategies and horizon. With no bureaucratic hierarchy to impede the management team, it has the agility to make timely decisions in response to promising opportunities in different investment cycles.
