TCK Investments
TCK Investments was established in 1990 by Ohad Topor. The firm operates as a multi-family office providing investment advisory to families, corporations and institutions. Its founding predates most independent investment offices in Korea. TCK deploys capital across equities, bonds, domestic and international real estate, hedge funds and private equity. It also executes direct co-investments, fund-of-funds commitments and secondaries. Confirmed focuses include InsurTech, Industrial Tech and FinTech with exposure to AI/ML, cybersecurity and semiconductors. Geographic reach covers Asia, Europe, the Middle East and North America. The firm lists holdings that include iShares Gold Trust and maintains a commercial office in central Seoul. The team includes Co-CEOs Mark Tetto and James Young. Senior advisors comprise Howard Marks of Oaktree Capital and Young-Key Hwang, former chairman of the Korea Financial Investment Association. TCK maintains philanthropic vehicles including the TCK Foundation and Arumjigi Culture Keepers Foundation. It holds membership in the Young Friends of the National Museum of Korea. TCK maintains an advisory board that has included Mark Mobius and maintains historical ties to Lord Jacob Rothschild. Its structure integrates local Korean relationships with international mandates rather than operating solely through external fund commitments.
