History
editFounder Travis Hamilton has said that he was inspired by a discussion in 2006 with Robert Friedland, the CEO of Ivanhoe Mines, a Canadian company operating in Mongolia.[7][8] In 2010, Hamilton left his position at the Helvetica group to explore opportunities in Mongolia.[7] When he found no easy way for outside investment in this market, he then decided to launch a fund.[7]
In November 2011, Khan Investment Management launched the Khan Mongolia Equity Fund, the first open-ended investment fund investing both in companies listed on the Mongolian Stock Exchange and in companies that operate in Mongolia but are listed elsewhere.[3][9] The fund also participates in Mongolian initial public offerings.[10]
In March 2012, Narantuguldur Saijrakh, former General Manager of Asia Pacific Securities, became its full-time director.[3]
