Established in 2015, Piton offers customised fixed-income and structured product portfolios for ultra-high-net-worth individuals, financial advisors, and institutional investors.

It is named after the climbing anchor and believes a strategic fixed income position acts as an asset allocation anchor, and stabilising clients steadily over time.
