September 17 2024 - 12:00AM
Balchug Capital, a leading international investment management firm
headquartered in Armenia specializing in event-driven and value
liquid strategies and private equity investments, has announced the
formation of its new Global Advisory Board, which will feature
esteemed industry leaders.
The inaugural member of this new Global Advisory
Board is Robert H. Tembeckjian, a prominent ethics-enforcement
official in the United States with decades of experience in
principled governance — an area where Balchug Capital is already an
industry leader and committed to further advancement. He will be
joined in the coming months by diverse individuals who will bring
additional international credentials and perspectives to the
Board.
The Global Advisory Board will support Balchug
Capital and its portfolio companies by providing strategic counsel
and mentorship for continued growth.
“We always work with top professionals to
incorporate best practices and top expertise in our work, with the
aim of continuously improving our decision-making. The
establishment of the Global Advisory Board is the next logical step
in our development and growth strategy,” said David Amaryan, the
CEO and founder of Balchug Capital. “Board Members are chosen for
their demonstrably strong industry knowledge and the alignment of
their expertise with our investment focus and strategic goals. We
are both honored and excited to have such an accomplished leader in
ethical governance as Mr. Tembeckjian by our side.”
“Balchug Capital has achieved modern-day success
with time-honored values. Its leaders work hard, invest with
intelligence, are socially conscious and contribute to their
community,” Mr. Tembeckjian said. “I am delighted and honored to
advise such an outstanding global firm headquartered in Armenia, my
ancestral homeland. This is an opportunity not only to support
Balchug’s continued growth but also to highlight and promote
ethical governance practices in the land of my heritage.”
While the Global Advisory Board serves in a
non-executive capacity and its recommendations are non-binding,
Balchug Capital will benefit from the experience and mentorship of
its members in order to enhance its investment strategies,
accelerate the growth of its portfolio companies, and capitalize on
novel as well as traditional opportunities.
