Six mandates.
One altitude
for every risk appetite.
SCAN's PMS is built the way Nepal's mountains are read — by elevation. Each portfolio sits at a different altitude of risk and return, from the sheltered base camp of guaranteed capital to the summit push of concentrated equity conviction. Disciplined research, real technology, one team managing your assets as if they were our own.
Client Inquiry & Intake
Initial consultation, investment objective mapping, and baseline KYC documentation.
Discipline first. Technology as instrumentation, not decoration.
We combine top-down macro analysis with bottom-up fundamental research, and remove emotion, timing, and speculation from the process wherever we can automate discipline instead.

What is PMS (Portfolio Management Service)?
A personalized investment service where a licensed portfolio manager actively manages your funds and securities. Instead of buying a generic mutual fund unit, you own a customized portfolio of NEPSE-listed equities, debentures, and fixed-income assets directly tailored to your financial objectives and risk profile.

Under Non-Discretionary PMS, investment decisions remain entirely with you. SCAN provides research, recommendations, and market access, but nothing is bought or sold without your explicit instruction. We execute, settle, and report on your approved decisions — you stay in control, we handle the work behind it.
All six mandates, side by side.
