Services

What we do, in plain terms

Four service lines, usually combined inside one mandate: research to establish the facts, introductions to reach the people who know more, diligence support once a transaction is on the table, and AI tooling so the picture stays current afterwards.

01

Market & Sector Research

Primary and desk research on Asian markets, sectors and supply chains — the factual groundwork behind an investment thesis.

  • Sector and thematic studies across China, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia and the wider region
  • Supply-chain mapping: who makes what, where, and at what scale
  • Company and management background research from public sources
  • Written briefings in English and Chinese, with every source cited

02

Executive & Supply-chain Introductions

We introduce clients to the operators, industry executives and supply-chain specialists who know a market first-hand — for research conversations, vetted and screened before the first call.

  • Curated introductions to plant managers, industry executives and former operators, as research sources
  • Screening against UK and US sanctions lists and export-control entity lists before any introduction is made
  • Interview and site-visit scheduling in-market
  • Follow-up notes so nothing said in the room is lost

03

Diligence Support

Fact-finding for a transaction already under consideration: site visits, reference calls and document review — reported without recommendation.

  • Site visits and supplier verification
  • Customer and expert reference calls, transcribed and summarised
  • Public-record, litigation and corporate-registry checks
  • Findings reported as facts and open questions, never as an opinion on the investment

04

AI Research Tooling

We build and run AI-assisted research pipelines for our clients — monitoring, extraction and summarisation over the sources that matter to a mandate.

  • Continuous monitoring of filings, news and industry sources in English and Chinese
  • Structured extraction from documents into reviewable briefs
  • Research agents that draft, cite and flag uncertainty for human review
  • Deployed on the client's own cloud tenancy where required

Scope

HSR AI Tech provides market research, diligence fact-finding, executive introductions and research tooling only. We do not advise on the merits of any particular investment, do not arrange or execute transactions, and do not hold client money. We are not authorised or regulated by the UK Financial Conduct Authority or any other financial regulator.

Services are provided only under a written engagement agreement that sets out the question, the deliverables and the fee. Fees are fixed or time-based and are never contingent on a transaction.

Principles

Principles before volume

The same four commitments sit behind every service line above. They are operating requirements, not slogans.

01

Facts, not tips

We report what we found and how we found it. We do not recommend investments.

02

Independent

We are paid for research and introductions, never a share of any transaction.

03

Screened before introduced

Every counterparty is checked against UK and US sanctions lists and export-control entity lists before we make an introduction.

04

Confidential by default

Mandates, targets and findings stay between us and the client.
