Entrepreneurs often go all-in, betting everything on one venture. Fund managers? They diversify, assess risk systematically, and know when to cut losses. In this episode of P&L, we speak with Ng Zhu Hann, CEO of Tradeview Capital, to unpack what business builders can learn from fund managers about managing risk and return.



Together, they explore key lessons from fund management, like diversification, alpha generation, and portfolio thinking, and how these translate to startup and SME realities. From handling the psychological biases that cloud judgment to knowing when to walk away or scale up, Hann shares practical advice on governance, founder blind spots, and building sustainable value.



The conversation also touches on founder vs. professional-led businesses, why governance and boards matter, and how business leaders can apply institutional investing frameworks to make better decisions.
