Performance Aspiration

Rooted in conviction,
growing with purpose

Our name is inspired by the Pinus Strobus — a tree that towers at 70 metres, grows steadily at one metre per year, and lives for over 400 years.

White Pine Investment Management was founded in May 2021 by Niraj Mansingka and Manish Karwa with a vision to build a sustainable institution defined by investing excellence. Our aspiration is to create long-term wealth for our partners.

We aim to be a respected asset management firm with an entrepreneurial culture and a disciplined, process-driven approach to investing, where deep research, analytical rigour, and patience guide every decision.

Inspired by the White Pine

The characteristics of the Pinus Strobus resonate deeply with our firm's beliefs and the outcomes we aspire to deliver for our investors.

Tower Above

Growing to 70 metres, White Pine trees tower over many others. We aspire to remain in the first quartile of performance compared to our peers.

Steady Growth

The Pinus Strobus grows gradually at one metre annually. We seek to be consistent in our outcomes — compounding wealth methodically over time.

Built to Endure

Mature White Pines live 200–400 years. Even fossilised leaves have been found. We are building for the long haul — a multi-generational institution.

Resilient Recovery

White Pines are fire-resistant and re-seed burned areas. We may see difficult years, but our process ensures we recover and rebuild stronger.
