A trusted compass toward capital growth
Your gateway to exclusive investment opportunities
Kenno is an asset management company centered on uncovering growth in places others often overlook, such as Asia’s developing economies. We believe emerging and frontier markets remain underinvested, yet increasingly vital to global portfolios.
Our mission is to navigate these inefficiencies and grow our clients’ capital through opportunities accessible only through active investment strategies.

A reliable steward of capital
Kenno is a client-centric business, putting our investors’ best interests first. We work with leading accredited and institutional investors across Europe and Asia, and welcome like-minded partners who value disciplined investing, world-class professionalism, and medium- to long-term growth. Many of our client relationships date back to the firm’s earliest days.
A legacy established for the future
Kenno was founded with a distinct identity — shaped by Nordic values, rooted in Finnish family office heritage, and incorporated in Singapore. We are the first asset manager with this unique DNA to establish a presence in Asia, helping international investors capture growth across the region.
Laying the foundation
In 2014, Wipunen Varainhallinta, a Finnish, family-owned investment holding company with strong links to KONE & Cargotec, decided to establish an investment management firm in Singapore under the advisory of WIP Asset Management — an outpost that would enable the company to further increase its presence and exposure in the region and take part in Southeast Asia’s booming economic growth.
People of Kenno
Our company is built around a team of professionals with international backgrounds and deep regional insight, bringing these perspectives together where they matter most.
