Brochure Summary

Overview

General Information Brilliance was incorporated in Hong Kong on March 18, 2013. Its principal place of business is Suites 3201 - 3205, 32/F, AIA Central, 1 Connaught Road Central, Central, Hong Kong. Brilliance is registered with the SEC as a Registered Investment Adviser and is relying on an exemption from registration as a commodity trading advisor with the CFTC. Brilliance provides investment advisory services to funds, including securities trading advice and incidental advice on the trading of commodity interests. Founded by Mr. Lin Shi, Brilliance employs an investment and trading strategy based on analyzable and trackable business opportunities that are simple and easily understood, and emphasizes investments offering exposure to (i) structural developments and major cyclical trends in the Chinese economy, and (ii) China-driven global economic developments. The principal owner of Brilliance is Lin Shi. Brilliance serves as the investment manager/adviser to investment arrangements and vehicles, such as Brilliant Partners Fund LP, established in January 2013 as an Exempted Limited Partnership registered in the Cayman Islands (the “Brilliant Partners Fund”), China Core Fund, established in March 2017 as an Exempted Company incorporated in Cayman Islands with Limited Liability, and PCH Manager Fund, SPC. - Segregated Portfolio 207 (started from October 2016) (hereinafter each a “fund” collectively, the “funds”). Each of Brilliant Partners Fund and China Core Fund serves as a master fund with two feeder funds. The feeder funds for Brilliant Partners Fund are: (1) Brilliant US Feeder 1 Fund Limited, a Cayman Islands Exempted Company incorporated with Limited Liability and (2) Brilliant US Feeder 2 Fund Limited, a Cayman Islands Exempted Company incorporated with Limited Liability. The feeder funds for China Core Fund are: (1) China Core Fund Feeder 1, a Cayman Islands Exempted Company Incorporated with Limited Liability; and (2) China Core Fund Feeder 2, a Cayman Islands Exempted Company incorporated with Limited Liability. Brilliance continues to serve as the investment adviser of the Brilliant Sharp Alpha Fund, established in November 2020 as an Exempted Company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability. However, the fund has filed a Notice of Voluntary Winding Up to the Company Registrar of Cayman Islands in August 2023, and Brilliance will discontinue its investment adviser role when the fund completes its dissolution. As part of the voluntary winding
up, the Brilliant Sharp Alpha Fund has voluntarily de-registered from the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority. Brilliance serves as the investment adviser of the funds. All of the investors in the funds are both: (a) “accredited investors” for the purposes of Regulation D of U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"); and are “qualified purchasers” as defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the Company Act; and (b) are “qualified eligible persons” under the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act (“Commodity Exchange Act”) which generally requires that an investor is either not a U.S. person, as defined under the Commodity Exchange Act, or is a “qualified purchaser”. Brilliance also serves as the investment manager to Brilliance Asset Management ICAV (the “ICAV”), a structured open-ended umbrella Irish collective asset-management vehicle authorized by the Central Bank of Ireland. The ICAV has established the Brilliance China Core Long Short Fund since April 2018. Investment advisory services provided by Brilliance include advisory services regarding instruments to be held by the funds, which may include futures contracts and options on futures contracts, structured notes, inverse floating rate securities, currency linked securities, index linked securities, currency forwards, pre-paid forwards, swaps, interest only or principal only securities, and foreign currencies, on both spot and forward exchange markets. The Funds - Investment Strategy The funds follow a value oriented strategy and would be best described as fundamental value investors. The funds invest in the long-term fundamental economics of industry. The funds may invest among a broad range of asset classes including equity and debt securities, money market instruments, and derivatives, in all global markets. The funds may, from time to time, hold a relatively “concentrated” securities portfolio with higher conviction. Leverage may be used when necessary with hedging and fluctuation assessment. For the funds, Brilliance does not tailor its advisory services to the specific needs of investors in the funds. Investors in the funds may not impose restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities. Assets Under Management As of August 31, 2023, Brilliance has approximately US$1.20 billion in assets under management on a discretionary basis. Wrap Fee Programs Brilliance currently does not participate in wrap fee program.
