John Knobel

Managing Director | Investment Advisor

Background

John has lived in Cyprus for over 25 years and brings years of global investment experience spanning the U.S., Cyprus, and European markets—including Athens. He began his career in New York with Morgan Stanley and has since held senior roles in the financial sector, including financial advisor, equity sales trader, fund manager, chief dealer, and head of investment research. He has also served as a director for a publicly listed investment fund.

Licensing & Professional Qualifications

John is fully licensed under both Cyprus and European Union regulations. He holds the Advanced Certificate (No. 1583) issued by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC), which he has maintained since 2006. This ensures he meets the highest regulatory standards for delivering trusted investment advisory services in Cyprus and throughout the EU.

Investment Philosophy: Core & Satellite Strategy

John’s investment philosophy is built around the Core & Satellite approach — a disciplined strategy that blends stability with opportunity.

The core of the portfolio consists of long-term, diversified holdings designed to provide consistent performance and manage risk. Around this foundation, satellite investments are strategically selected to capture growth, respond to market trends, and take advantage of specific opportunities across global and regional markets.

This philosophy enables clients to benefit from the best of both worlds: structured, resilient portfolios with the flexibility to pursue targeted growth, tailored to each client’s financial goals and risk profile.
