(1888PressRelease) September 06, 2019 - Byron Stafford, a professional Asset Manager who provides institutional and individual investors with a broad array of equity and fixed income products designed to meet long-term goals, today announced that has accepted the Award for Investing Excellence for Exemplary Stewardship at the Asian Financial Investment Conference (AFIC) - one of the three top honors presented by the firm. Byron Stafford is the inaugural recipient of the award, which recognizes the asset manager that has shown an unwavering focus on serving the best interests of investors.
“We are pleased to receive this honor from a firm we respect and admire, and one who is like-minded in the service to investors,” said Matthew Cheng, Managing Director and Head of Alternative Investments. “The award is a testament to our company’s mission statement: Creating a company operated solely in their clients’ interests. This same spirit of client focus that inspired the formation of Byron Stafford will continue to guide our work today and in the future.”

Byron Stafford has continuously embodied its mission of taking a stand for all investors, treating them fairly, and giving them the best chance for investment success. The firm recently won praise for lowering the cost of investing by expanding its commission-free platform, while eliminating risky inverse and leveraged products that it deemed “incompatible with long-term investing” and out of concern for the potential misuse by the average investor. Byron Stafford has also expressed strong support for a proposal to help investors make more informed investment decisions through more clear and succinct fund disclosures. Most recently, the company advocated for greater boardroom diversity and other governance “best practices.”
