Our History

ChapmanCraig Limited was founded in 1995 by Craig Chapman. At that time, it was known as Long-Term Asset Management, reflecting the investment principles of the firm. The firm is licensed and regulated by Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission to provide securities advice and asset management services. Its registration number is: ACW278.

ChapmanCraig’s association with Letko Brosseau & Associates, Royal Bank of Canada and Scotiabank also go back to 1996. In 2009 the firm underwent a rebranding. In addition to a name change, a new logo was introduced that encapsulates our mission and firm values.

The circle, composed of six arcs, represents the globe. The six arcs are made up of three gold colored ones representing the major asset classes on which we focus; and three that are burgundy colored, representing our firm’s values: Trust, Integrity and Excellence. These arcs swirl into a focused circle in the center which represents our client focus. Our clients are the center of our work and our global vision.
