Baiduri Capital will be hosting an investor education session titled “When Markets Move: How to Manage, Strengthen and Position Your Portfolio”, focusing on how investors can manage and strengthen their portfolios through changing market conditions.
The session will be led by Hazelle Soon, co-founder of The Joyful Investors, a Singapore based financial education firm focused on practical, long term investing approaches. Members of the public are welcome to attend.
This upcoming session forms part of Baiduri Capital’s broader effort to build investment confidence and literacy across Brunei. Over the past year, these efforts have included the launch of Baiduri Invest, the Bank’s online trading platform that provides intuitive access to global markets, as well as a Memorandum of Understanding with Universiti Brunei Darussalam (UBD) to strengthen financial education and investment literacy initiatives. Baiduri Capital has also engaged younger investors through the UBD Investment Challenge, which provides students with hands-on exposure to investing and market dynamics.
As part of these efforts, Baiduri Capital has introduced a series of learning sessions that guide investors step by step through different aspects of investing. These included “Building Dividend Portfolios: Identifying Income Opportunities Globally”, led by Willie Keng, CFA, founder of Dividend Titan, which focused on generating income over time, and “2026 Investment Outlook: How to Build Long-Term Wealth Globally”, presented by Gerald Wong, CFA, Founder and CEO of Beansprout, which explored broader market trends and investment opportunities.
Building on this, “Portfolio Construction 101: Building a Resilient Investment Portfolio”, led by Hazelle Soon, introduced participants to how different investments work together within a portfolio. The session covered key concepts such as financial goal setting, risk and time horizons, and diversification across asset classes including stocks, unit trusts, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), real estate investment trusts (REITs), and bonds.
The upcoming session continues this progression by shifting the focus to what comes after portfolio construction and helping investors understand how to manage, adjust and strengthen their portfolios over time as market conditions evolve.
Commenting on the upcoming session, Brian Wong, General Manager of Baiduri Capital, said: “Investing doesn’t stop once a portfolio is built. Markets change, personal goals evolve, and portfolios need to be reviewed over time. This session is designed to help investors think more clearly about how to manage those changes, using simple frameworks rather than reacting to short term noise. Ultimately, we want investors to feel more confident and grounded in the decisions they make.”
