Henan Asset Wins Award from London Stock Exchange Group
PT Henan Putihrai Asset Management (Henan Asset) has once again gained world-class recognition at the LSEG Lipper Fund Awards 2026, organised by the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG). Through its product Henan Ekuitas Syariah Berkah Kelas A, Henan Asset successfully won an award in the Global Islamics universe for the Best Equity Sharia Indonesia Fund over 5 Years. This achievement marks three consecutive years for Henan Asset receiving an international award from LSEG Lipper for the sharia mutual fund category. The LSEG Lipper Fund Awards is a global award that assesses the performance of mutual funds across various countries and asset categories. In the Global Islamic universe, assessments are made for countries with significant developments in the sharia investment industry, including Indonesia, Malaysia, the United Arab Emirates, and several other major markets. This award comes amid challenging market conditions. Based on data from the Financial Services Authority (OJK) as of April 2026, the Jakarta Composite Index (IHSG) was recorded as having corrected by 19.55% year-to-date (YTD) due to high global uncertainty and continued volatility in world financial markets. Nevertheless, the mutual fund industry continued to show resilience, with net asset value (NAV) reaching Rp711.89 trillion, growing 5.41% YTD, supported by net subscriptions of Rp37.24 trillion throughout 2026. Amidst such conditions, Henan Asset believes investors need a more disciplined, measured investment approach that is not reactive to short-term volatility. Henan Asset Director, Markam Halim, said the award from the London Stock Exchange Group serves as a reminder that investment is a long-term process requiring consistency in portfolio management. ‘For us, this award is not just a form of appreciation for performance, but also a reminder that investment is a long-term journey. Amid ever-changing market conditions, we believe the integrity of the investment process, portfolio management discipline, and the ability to remain adaptive are important factors in maintaining investor trust,’ said Markam. According to him, over the two decades the company has been established, it has learned that the market will always move in cycles. Therefore, the company’s main focus is not just on facing short-term momentum, but on consistently maintaining the quality of investment management across various market conditions. In addition to being a recognition of the company’s investment management quality, this award coincides with Henan Asset’s 20th anniversary on 2 June 2026. On this occasion, the company carries the theme ‘Two Decades of Resilience and Growth’, which reflects Henan Asset’s journey in facing various market phases while maintaining sustainable business growth. On the same occasion, Henan Asset Director, Edwardus Ronald Yudianto, conveyed that the company’s 20-year journey cannot be separated from the trust of investors that has continued to grow under various market conditions. ‘The trust that has been built together with investors has become an important foundation for our journey over the last 20 years. Therefore, our focus is not only on delivering investment products, but also ensuring that every service continues to evolve and remain relevant to increasingly dynamic investor needs,’ explained Ronald. As of 31 May 2026, Henan Asset manages assets under management (AUM) of more than Rp13 trillion with the support of over 110,000 investors from various segments. The company also adheres to the principle of managing funds in a focused manner through only 15 investment products to maintain discipline and performance consistency. These products include money market funds, fixed income funds, balanced funds, equity funds, Sharia-based funds, and USD-denominated funds to be launched in 2026. Looking ahead, Henan Asset affirmed its commitment to continue assisting investors in facing market dynamics through prudent, adaptive, and long-term-oriented investment management. ‘Ultimately, investing is not just about getting through one market phase, but about growing consistently over the long haul. We hope to continue being a trusted growth partner for investors in every phase,’ concluded Markam.
