SMU Lee Kong Chian School of Business alumnus Terence Chua was featured in an article where he shared his investing strategy, immediate investment plans, biggest investing mistake and best investment move. Mr Chua, who is an equity investment analyst at an institutional fund investment house, believes the way to get to the heart of the financial markets and investing is through reading, and there's no short cut. He also follows specific authors or writers from whom he gleans insights - such as Mr James Kynge, the Financial Times' (FT) emerging markets editor. "He has unique insight into the emerging markets so I get alerts whenever he writes something. I also follow James Mackintosh, who's now at the Wall Street Journal and used to be at FT. Focusing on key authors cuts short the material I have to read,” he said.
