Pheim Asset Management

Pheim divides its operations into three vehicles listed on its website. Pheim Malaysia handles conventional investment management, Pheim Islamic runs Sharia-compliant mandates, and Pheim Unit Trusts manages pooled retail funds. This separation allows each entity to operate within its own regulatory and compliance framework while sharing a common Kuala Lumpur headquarters.

No. The firm's website explicitly states that Pheim 'does not operate proprietary trading/investment accounts' and considers this independence essential to avoiding conflicts of interest. All investment activity is conducted solely on behalf of external clients.

Pheim has not published a detailed breakdown of its asset-class mix or strategy on its current website. The firm posts monthly market reviews covering macro commentary, which suggests a top-down element in its process, but the specific investment universe — equities, fixed income, alternatives, or multi-asset — is not publicly disclosed as of mid-2026.

The firm's 'Team' page lists seven individuals including Philip Larson, Jean Scott, Miguel Anders, Bryan Johnson, Amanda Swensson, Marianne Smith, and Evelyn Grant. The site does not assign titles, specify an investment committee, or designate a chief investment officer. Philip Larson's name appears multiple times on the page, suggesting a leading role, but no formal leadership structure is publicly documented.

The exact founding year is not stated on the current website, but a '30th Anniversary Montage' posted on the site indicates the firm was established in the mid-1990s. Pheim claims its 'long term track record speaks for itself' without publishing performance data, recognized benchmarks, or independent verification of returns on the public site.
