Kamet Capital Partners Pte is on a hiring spree as the Singapore family office tops $1 billion in assets for the wealthy clients it serves in Asia.
Kamet has hired seven people since April, bringing total headcount to 25, CEO Kerry Goh said. Two more staff will be added by September, said Goh, whose firm runs money for four families.
Among the new recruits are Wilson Er, a portfolio manager from Rockpool Capital in Hong Kong, and David Law, a money manager and analyst at Mizuho Asset Management in Singapore. Er, Law and two analysts join the investment team, while three others will help with administrative needs of the families, who are from China and Southeast Asia, he said. Kamet’s growth underscores the boom in Singapore’s family-office industry, which counts billionaires including James Dyson and Haidilao co-founder Shu Ping.
