DSGAsia was founded in 1999 by Simon Ogus, widely recognised as one of the region's top economists over the last two decades and one of the few who accurately predicted the Asian economic and financial crisis and more recently the collapse of America and Europe's very own credit Ponzi schemes.

The company provides independent, strategic analysis and risk assessments of the economic and political environment in the major countries of Asia - primarily Japan, Greater China, the Koreas, ASEAN and the Indian subcontinent.

DSGAsia works with financial and non-financial corporate and government entities to assist them in the process of allocating their real economy and financial market investments in the region, and offers trading and macro risk management advice and strategies associated with managing these investments. It disseminates its advice and strategies via written reports, direct verbal and face-to-face client contact, group or individual presentations, and the co-ordination of meeting schedules with and introductions to government officials and other macro and market contacts of DSGAsia personnel.

We operate via two Limited vehicles, Galaxy Consultancy Limited and DSGAsia Limited. Copies of company documentation are available on request.

Focused Strategic Analysis; No Conflicts of Interest
...
DSGAsia works in partnership with a small group of core corporate, government and financial institutions. We do not seek to offer a universial analytical service in direct competition to the major investment banks, but rather we focus on the strategic issues as opposed to the maintenance and the reportage.

We are also a pure advisory company and are not in the business of capital raising or fund management, nor do we directly offer trade execution capability. However, if clients prefer to pay for our services via 'soft dollar' payments and/or other forms of trading commission, we maintain counterparty relationships with a range of financial institutions.

Levels and Range of Service

DSGAsia offers a range of service packages and pricing tailored to the unique requirements of each client. Clients are offered a choice of working with the company on either a project-specific, or a retainer basis. In the case of the former, the company will assess the feasibility, and the time and resource requirements for the commissioned research and/or advisory assignments, and quote accordingly. However, for clients who require a regular, ongoing service, DSGAsia offers various levels of pricing dependent on the range of contact and inputs required by the client.

All retainer clients receive our regular emailed updates and have full access to the
DSGAsia website with all its report libraries and charting resources. We also offer other services such as the ability to commission special studies, to address group meetings at a client's behest, and the co-ordination of research trips. These may or may not be priced separately depending on the terms of a client's retainer agreement

Outside of these retainer packages, DSGAsia offers a range of project-specific services. These include:

- Project Commissioning. DSGAsia undertakes specific, tailor-made research projects at the behest of clients. Such projects are either charged for on a time apportionment basis or on the basis of a pre-agreed flat fee which also covers travelling time and expenses. The client can choose to retain unique use of the results of such projects or after a mutually agreed period of time, they can then be made available for wider distribution.

. - Speaking Engagements. DSGAsia offers on an ad hoc basis, a briefing service to non-retainer clients, and speeches to groups at conferences. Such engagements are either charged for on a time apportionment basis or on the basis of a pre-agreed flat fee which also covers travelling time and expenses.
.
- Research Visits. DSGAsia arranges for and accompanies clients to meetings with government officials and other macro contacts around the region. Such a service is either charged for on a time apportionment basis or on the basis of a pre-agreed flat fee which also covers travelling time and expenses.
