Khan Investment Management is an investment management and advisory group that operates a fund investing in Mongolia related equities.[1][2][3][4][5] The firm was founded by Travis Hamilton in March 2011, and is based in Singapore and the Cayman Islands.[1][6]

History

Founder Travis Hamilton has said he was inspired by a discussion in 2006 with Robert Friedland, the CEO of Ivanhoe Mines, a Canadian company operating in Mongolia.[7][8] In 2010, Hamilton left his position at the Helvetica group to explore opportunities in Mongolia.[7] When he found no easy way for outside investment in this market, he decided to launch a fund.[7]

In November 2011, Khan Investment Management launched the Khan Mongolia Equity Fund, the first open-ended investment fund investing both in companies listed on the Mongolian Stock Exchange and in companies that operate in Mongolia but are listed elsewhere.[3][9] The fund also participates in Mongolian initial public offerings.[10] In March 2012, Narantuguldur Saijrakh, former General Manager of Asia Pacific Securities, became a full-time director.[3]
