Ali has more than 17 years of investment management, investment banking and advisory experience in emerging and frontier markets including Russia, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, including the company's current focus of Mongolia, Myanmar and Mozambique.

Alisher Ali believes the following factors will drive the growth in these selected frontier markets:

  • They are endowed with abundant natural resources such as oil and gas, mining and metals, agricultural land and forests, and hydropower resources.

  • They are favorably located near advanced and emerging economies including some members of BRICS.

  • They are emerging as new energy and food sources for consumers in key advanced and emerging markets.

  • They have large populations with positive demographics and low cost labor base.

  • Their economies are undercapitalized and open to foreign capital.
