The company has set up 2 funds under the Securities Commission's Guidelines on Wholesale Funds. They are :-
CORSTON-SMITH ASEAN CORPORATE GOVERNANCE FUND
This wholesale fund was launched in June 2008 with an approved fund size of 1 billion units at an initial offer price of RM1 per unit.
This product exemplifies our conviction that companies with transparent corporate governance practices are more likely to achieve superior long term financial performance than those without.

Only stocks that have passed our stringent corporate governance screening process would be considered for investment. Hermes EOS will provide its governance opinion through its Governance Overlay services and only after considering our own analysis together with the input from Hermes EOS, would we invest in a stock.
CORSTON-SMITH ASEAN SHARIAH CORPORATE GOVERNANCE FUND
This shariah compliant fund takes our efforts in responsible investing another step ahead.
The thrust of our investment strategy will be companies with not only good corporate governance practices but also which have passed the requirements of shariah permissible investments.
