What We Do
SEIML and its partners can assist foreign and domestic start-ups, SMEs and corporates in market research, company set-up, business management and capital raising.
We provide an array of services to help startups and SMEs manage their business.
Corporate Finance and Business Strategy (SE Asia)
Our corporate finance activities are carried out through our joint-venture company Orytiv Ventures. Through Orytiv, we assist startups and SMEs in all areas related to the private capital markets. We work on behalf of the company to raise money via our network of Angel Investors, VC firms and Family Offices throughout the region. We represent the company and assist in all aspects of documentation, presentation and related in its dealings with potential investors.
We also work with the company to develop its go-to-market strategy and and mentor it to help it scale in the region.
Through our Directorship held in the Hong Kong chapter of Founder Institute we have a network of hundreds of business professionals, early stage Founders and enterprise businesses throughout SE Asia.
This business is managed by John Evans.
Company Setup and Business Process Outsourcing (Hong Kong and China)
One thing studied in finance books is the ‘buy or lease’ decision. For example, if you have or are starting a business in China do you setup a company there and put in the Paid-up Capital, do you hire local staff for the various aspects of business administration with the government, banks and customers and do you try to oversee these functions in a hands-on way from afar. Alternatively, you could hire SEIML as your local agent to do all of this for you and with a regular but single line of communication with us. There are pluses and minuses to both choices but the regulatory environment in China is quite complex and one really needs experience to take on all these tasks.
For a fixed monthly fee, we can provide a range of business administration services including, but not limited to, the following:
- Company setup
- Use SEIML's Shanghai office as your business address in China
- Manage relations with government departments (tax department, regulatory bureaus, etc.)
- Setup and manage your banking relations
- Have SEIML collect your receipts in China and remit to your head office
- Accounting service (monthly, quarterly, annual report to tax bureau, manage your Fapiaos, etc.)
- Assist you in finding strategic partners in China
- Basic market research and due diligence on any or all 3rd party companies

Investment Management (China)
The financial markets in China are quite different from international markets in terms of regulation, market making and many other ways; local knowledge is essential.
Through our associate firm, Longly Capital, we offer many aspects of investment management related to domestic fixed income products. We can assist in all areas of trade execution and, also, offer various fixed income investment strategies. For persons or firms new to the market, we also offer training for your staff.
- Fixed income execution, settlement and custody
- Convertible bond execution, settlement and custody
- Financial investment strategies for FoF and HNW individuals
- Staff training on markets and financial markets operations
This business is managed by Benny Cao.
