The work behind every trading day

This is what I do daily so my clients don't have to. Choose a routine to see what it covers.

A clear read on what moved the Colombo market, and why.

  • How the ASPI and S&P SL20 finished, and which sectors led or lagged
  • Company announcements, results and corporate actions that affect your holdings
  • Local and foreign buying and selling, explained in plain language

Your mix of updates depends on your portfolio and how hands-on you want to be.

Advice built around your portfolio

Whether you are investing for the first time or managing a large portfolio, the aim is the same: sensible risk, steady attention and good returns over time.

Build and diversify

Spread your money across sectors and company sizes, so one poor result doesn't decide your year.

Review on a schedule

Regular portfolio updates show what is working, what isn't, and what to do about it.

Follow interest rates

Compare what shares could earn with fixed-income returns, and adjust as rates move.

Look after larger portfolios

High-net-worth clients get closer attention to risk, liquidity and position size.

Support institutions

Research and market coverage that fits the way institutions invest.

Invest wisely. Understand the risks. Returns are not guaranteed.

Invest in Sri Lanka, wherever you live

Non-resident investors can trade on the Colombo Stock Exchange. I guide you through opening your accounts, one step at a time.

  1. Talk it through

    We discuss your goals, how much you plan to invest and how much risk you are comfortable with. I also help you confirm you are eligible to invest as a non-resident.

  2. Open your CDS and IIA accounts

    A CDS account holds your shares electronically. An Inward Investment Account (IIA) is the Sri Lankan bank account you use to bring money in. Foreign investors can start both online through the CSE mobile app, and I help you with the forms.

  3. Fund your account and start investing

    Once both accounts are active, you can buy shares on the Colombo Stock Exchange and receive daily updates and portfolio guidance.

Questions investors ask

What is a CDS account?

The Central Depository System (CDS) keeps a record of the shares you own on the Colombo Stock Exchange. You need a CDS account to buy and hold listed shares.

What is an IIA?

An Inward Investment Account is a bank account in Sri Lanka for non-resident investors. Money comes in through it to buy securities, and sale proceeds and dividends can come back through it.

Who can open an IIA?

Foreign nationals living in or outside Sri Lanka can. So can Sri Lankans who hold dual citizenship or permanent residency abroad, and Sri Lankan citizens working overseas. I will confirm your category with you.

Do I need to be in Sri Lanka?

No. Foreign investors can begin the account process online through the CSE mobile app. I walk you through it, wherever you are.

What documents will I need?

Usually a copy of your passport plus the bank's know-your-customer and tax declaration forms. Each bank sets its own list, so I check the current requirements with you before you start.

Which currencies can I use?

IIAs can generally be held in Sri Lankan rupees or major currencies such as US dollars, pounds and euros. The bank confirms what it offers.

Rules for foreign investors, IIAs and CDS accounts can change. I confirm the current requirements with you before you open anything.
