* Sovereign and Orient Global have enjoyed tremendous success. Their secrecy is occasionally broken by public efforts at effecting change through corporate governance advocacy, eg with SK Corp (South Korea). Mr Chandler's investment style can been characterised as deep value investing primarily in global emerging markets and especially in distress situations. Orient Global is a major investor in India and is involved in numerous charitable projects.
