The story
Founder 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. In 2010, Hamilton left his position at the Helvetica group to explore opportunities in Mongolia. When he found no easy way for outside investment in this market, he then decided to launch a fund.
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. The fund also participates in Mongolian initial public offerings.
In March 2012, Narantuguldur Saijrakh, former General Manager of Asia Pacific Securities, became its full-time director.
