Panama -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/21/2012 -- Sphinx Asia Wealth Management Ltd. has launched a new dedicated portal specifically for retail financial advisers.

The new online portal, available directly through a pre-approval access page, brings together the most relevant investment information from Sphinx's extensive range of detailed and unbiased industry analysis and allows financial advisors to cut through prevailing noise to hone in on the topics which are important to them.

Alongside this, advisers will be able to quickly navigate through Sphinx tools and investment services which can help them get under the bonnet of its funds, build and manage client portfolios, and enhance the value added to clients' investments.

Adviser visits to Sphinx's website have tripled since its portal's beta launch in March 2011 which is a clear indication that the provision of online help and support is increasingly vital.

Teddy Marshall, head of business development at Sphinx Asia, said: "Financial advisors need support so they can spend their time generating value for their businesses, and advising their clients. They are bombarded with news and investment information from a variety of sources and it can be difficult to steer a course through the content and find the relevant pieces.

"Sphinx Asia has teams of experts across a wide range of investment capabilities and they regularly produce insightful and impartial commentary - so we have made advisers' lives a bit easier by consolidating this into one place alongside the tools they need to help provide the best investment advice for their clients. We want to help them spend as much time with their clients and less time searching for information and support - our new online information suite does that."

At Sphinx Asia, the purpose is to improve financial security by providing strategic advice, world-class implementation, state-of-the-art performance benchmarks, and a range of objectively researched, institutional-quality investment products. Many of the world's most successful institutions and organizations depend on Sphinx Asia's investment expertise to build long-term financial security for their businesses, investment funds and employees.

Panama -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/21/2012 -- Sphinx Asia Wealth Management, Ltd. has revealed that more than one in three (35 per cent) of workers in the UK admit that they don't have a pension, meaning that they will have to rely on the State Pension and any savings in retirement.

The survey of 1,600 working adults also found that those who do contribute to a company or private pension pay in an average of 6.2 per cent of their annual incomes. Women are far less likely to save for their retirement with 41 per cent saying they do not have a pension, compared with 29 per cent of men.

To make matters worse for those who do not save into a pension fund, as well as facing a sharp drop in income at retirement, they are also missing out on significant tax relief during their working lives. Office of National Statistics figures suggest that the average worker in the UK earns nearly £1 million over the course of their working lives. An individual making the average pension contribution of 6.2 per cent of this income could receive a total of more than £15,000 in pension tax relief.

Sphinx Asia reveled that average tax relief on pension contributions is £334 per year for a person paying the basic rate of tax. Higher rate taxpayers stand to lose substantially more by not paying into a pension scheme and this most affects those expat customers of Sphinx Asia residing and working in the South East Asia region. On average, South East Asian expats, as a group, are higher earners than the comparable worker in the UK.

Teddy Marshall, head of business development at Sphinx Asia, said: "Failing to save into a pension means not only having to rely solely on the State Pension in retirement, but also missing out on the 'free money boosts' which come with pensions, such as tax relief and employer contributions.

Mr. Marshall went on to say, "When coupled with the benefits of any additional employer contributions or gains through fund performance, a pension is the best way of saving for retirement, for many people."

"Sphinx Asia Wealth Management Ltd. is uniquely positioned with offices in the ASEAN Region as well as our New Headquarters office in Panama to advise a wider expat community on retirement planning."

Sphinx Asia has been helping investors maximize pension benefits, understand the impact of tax relief, and ultimately secure a decent retirement income; it's important to seek professional financial advice.

Sphinx Asia is recommending five (5) stocks for immediate purchase to implement a portfolio sector and issue shift in equities that emphasizes the undervalued nature of corporate assets where the whole is priced at less than the sum of its parts. This situation is emanating from segments of the Chinese market.

Taipei, Taiwan -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/27/2011 -- Sphinx Asia has, as well, a certain turnaround situation in the US industrial sector. In addition, we are the beneficiaries of some highly regarded private research, that our clients have successfully relied upon in the past, to identify terrific opportunities in emerging industries and technologies; all poised for big quick moves once these fundamental realities become evident to main stream investors.

Sphinx Asia also have a new recommendation in the gold market where we have generated substantial gains for clients in the past.

From these recommendations, clients will have great opportunities for massive gains over the next 6 months to 2 years. These 5 stock picks are now must own positions that will move higher regardless of overall market sentiment.

Buy Gammon Gold (NYSE: GRS)

Buy Yahoo!, Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO)

Buy General Motors (NYSE: GM)

Buy GreenCell Technologies (XETRA: GT5.DE)

Buy DirectView Holdings, Inc. (OTC.BB: DIRV)

Example:

Gammon's recent exploration success forms a core of my updated investment thesis. During the first half of 2010 alone, Gammon discovered three new deposits at its Ocampo gold and silver mine, and it swiftly replaced nearly two-thirds of estimated 2010 production with
127,750 gold-equivalent ounces (GEOs) in new reserves. One of those three deposits, Santa Eduviges, has been fast-tracked for development, and production is expected to commence any day now.

Capital Gold's (AMEX:CGC) board has unanimously endorsed Gammon's proposed merger. The pro forma company emerges as a titan among the smaller mid-tier gold producers. Capital Gold's El Chanante mine will double Gammon's gold reserves to 3 million ounces -- apart from Gammon's existing trove of 66 million ounces of silver. Gammon sees pro forma production averaging 230,000 ounces of gold per year for 2011 and 2012 at a jaw-dropping production cost of $78 per ounce.

As of Sept. 30, Gammon held a cash balance of $107 million and carried a debt-to-equity ratio of just 3.7%. Between that capital strength and the prospect of a Capital Gold merger, I see a golden opportunity to capitalize upon one of the industry's most promising turnaround stories.

A forthcoming preliminary assessment of Gammon's Guadalupe y Calvo project, a cementing of the Capital Gold merger, and impressive reserve expansion from that successful 2010 exploration campaign could all provide dramatic upside catalysts during 2010
.
Sphinx Asia recommend the purchase of Gammon Gold (NYSE: GRS) at $8.00 per share

From these recommendations, our clients will have great opportunities for massive gains over the next 6 months to 2 years.
