Mr Win advises clients not to miss out on the benefit of diversification, especially during periods of market volatility.

“Over the years, we have faced numerous unexpected challenges, from natural disasters to global policy shifts such as the Trump tariffs and the US government shutdown,’ said K-Asset executive chairman Win Phromphaet, underscoring the importance of building stable and diversified portfolios that balance stability with long-term growth potential to withstand all market conditions.

“We cannot predict the market, but we can prepare our portfolios. The key lies in diversification, across both geography and asset classes, to ensure resilience against any possible scenario” he told K-Asset's “Know the Markets Summit 2025” held jointly with JP Morgan Asset Management.
