Tokyo, Japan, November 13, 2015 (Newswire.com) - James Man and Andrew Knight, Senior Portfolio Managers at Ling Capital in Tokyo, Japan, have initiated a philanthropic program in which individual investors donate appreciated assets to charitable foundations of their choice.

James and Andrew have kindly donated USD $25,000 worth of shares each from their personal portfolios, with a minimum 20% appreciation from inception, to UNICEF Japan. “We at Ling are encouraging our portfolio managers and clients alike to join in the momentum to start a new trend that would have mid- to high net worth individuals donating portions of their over-achieving portfolios to notable causes.” James Man stated.
