Last month, Yeonam Books published its flagship book by him, “Korea Alternative Investment, on June 30, 2020, which is the very first attempt to introduce the Korean alternative investment market to the world. Written in English for global investors who want to learn about Korea’s alternative investments, no other book on the alternative investment market in Korea has been published in the local language or Korean. “Korea Alternative Investment covers everything from real estate, infrastructure, ships, aircraft, private equity, and hedge funds to even the venture capital of Korea. It includes six individual alternative investment markets from A to Z: market overview, regulation, system, valuation, benchmark, historical performance, and real case studies. The book is targeted for global institutional investors, private investment companies, and academic and public institutions with interests in the alternative investment markets of emerging markets as well as the Republic of Korea.

This book is only sold online at www.yeonambooks.com and Amazon.com

The book has already received high remarks from institutional investors, including the national pension fund of Korea, the world’s third-largest asset manager, a global private equity fund, Affirma Capital (former Standard Chartered Private Equity), and local value investment company VIP Asset Management. Mr. Bock, the head of alternative investment division of VIP Asset Management, welcomed the publication of the book, remarking, “This book is worth buying, keeping, and re-reading from time to time. Even though I consider myself an experienced veteran alternative investor, I acquired new information from some chapters, which helped clarify my understanding of valuation, benchmark, and regulation.”

Mr. Shim, the managing director of Affirma Capital, commented on the book, “Finally a book focusing on the Korea’s alternative investment market has been published. It has been a long wait for an all-in-one reference book about the alternative investment world in Korea to be available. I recommend it to global investors interested in Korea and the alternative investment market.”

Mr. Kim, the senior portfolio manager at the national pension fund of Korea (known as NPS), also recommended the book to global institutional investors who are interested in the Korean market, including the pension funds. He commented on the book, “This provides an excellent walk-through of the alternative investment world focusing on Korea. The author does an excellent job of introducing each alternative investment market along with the real case analysis at the end of each chapter.”
