Buhawi Investment Management

Buhawi Investment Management (B.I.M.) is a professional investment management firm based in the Philippines, focused on systematic trading in the Cryptocurrency markets. It is dedicated to producing exceptional returns for its investors by strictly adhering to tested financial quantitative methods and an emphasis on global macro. The firm was created in anticipation of the three key megatrends that, with conviction, we see unfolding over this decade: Disintermediation of Traditional Finance by Blockchain - We see a completely different financial world over the next few decades with the displacement of the majority of traditional primitive financial functions, such as lending, insurance, trading and many more. This is a major transition from a defunct centrally planned economy and financial system, to a digital and decentralized form of finance. New Normal of Volatility – We see that a long-term secular push and pull dynamic in financial markets between (1) major deflation catalysts of debt & demographics and (2) unprecedented central bank and government fiscal activity will result in a very volatile environment. As major markets around the world have already been overrun by deflation, we continue to seek pockets of inflationary strength and anticipate new trend developments where we can effectively focus capital. Shift-back from Passive to Active Fund Management – We believe the non-consensus view that the biggest “Pain Point” for the Filipino Investor during this period will be the “Buy & Hold” strategy for big caps or long Index Fund. This is a strategy that has become a pain point since 2015, and we believe that it will only get worse this decade due to global macro factors. We leverage on our decade-long experience of generally outperforming the benchmark for the majority of those years. Given this, we therefore believe that we have the right skill set, for the kind of narrow and volatile environment we anticipate for this decade.
