Profil
Mr. Michael A.
King, CFA MBA, is a Chief Investment Officer at Taiyo Pacific Partners LP and at Taiyo Fund Management LLC.
Mr. King first set foot in Japan in 1987 when he served as a missionary in Hokkaido for two years.
After that he worked as a legal, compliance and settlement analyst for Morgan Stanley in Japan for three years.
He joined Thomas White International as a Japanese equity analyst.
In order to have the opportunity to engage with Japanese management more frequently, he moved to Liberty Wanger Asset Management to cover the Japanese small/mid-cap equity market.
While working for the Acorn Funds and managing over $600 million, he developed a strong expertise in running Japanese small-cap equity portfolios and emerged as one of the premier Japan portfolio managers by displaying a strong ability to discover unloved and undervalued smaller-cap Japanese securities and to help companies identify their core strengths and areas for improvement.
Over the course of his frequent visits to Japan, he met with the senior management teams of hundreds of small and mid-cap companies and was able to glean valuable insights into Japanese corporate culture and the competitive landscape in Japan.
He was also able to establish relationships with senior management of many Japanese corporations.
Mr. King completed his undergraduate degree in Business (BS) from Brigham Young University in 1992 and he received his graduation major in Finance at the University of Chicago’s Booth School of Business.
He was earned his MBA at the University of Chicago.
He is a Chartered Financial Analyst.
