Brilliance
Our Investment Philosophy
Brilliance is resolutely committed to maintaining superior investment performance, leading the way in product development and delivering unrivalled levels of service to all our investors.
Brilliance was founded over fifty years ago by Jack C. Smith on a simple premise: work harder and smarter every day to help small group of investors meet their goals. Today, that philosophy remains intact, except for the fact that our “small group of investors” has grown to include corporations, charitable organizations, financial institutions and advisors, as well as millions of individuals worldwide.
Extensive, first-hand research into individual companies is crucial in enabling us to identify success stories of the future. We believe the resources we devote to company research match or exceed all our competitors in the investment world.

卓越投資
投資理念：
卓越投資致力為客戶提供優質超卓的服務，更是產品開發的市場先驅者，為客戶帶來無與倫比的投資體驗。
卓越投資早在半世紀前成立，創辦人傑克。森先生當時抱有一個簡單信念：埋首苦幹、靈活地助一小撮投資者達成目標。時至今日，此信念仍舊牢記我們心中，唯一改變的是我們不僅為那 “一小撮 ”投資著服務，對象更擴展至不同企業、慈善機構、金融機構及顧問，當然還少不了遍及全球的數以百萬名獨立投資者。
工欲善其事，必先利其器，固要成就一個又一個成功的故事，對公司們作廣泛深入的一手調查是關鍵。我們相信，卓越在這方面投入的資源達到甚至超過市場上的所有對手。

The Hell Camp of Kinkaseki
A little over an hour’s drive from Taipei around Taiwan’s northeast coast takes you to Jiufen, a historic mining settlement which clings to steep denuded hills overlooking the Pacific. After gold was discovered the town boomed and by the mid-1930s it was known as “Little Shanghai”, a place of bright lights, windfalls, whoring, and desperate toil. A decade later the gold was gone and so were the lights and people. The place lay forgotten until 1989 when it was featured in City of Sadness, a groundbreaking film about Taiwan’s 2.28 incident. Today Jiufen is a tourist town full of arts and crafts shops and traditional teashops catering to Taipei day-trippers. A few minuted further along the coast, as the bottom of steep hills strewn with abandoned mining buildings and gravestones, lies the sleepy village of Chingguashi. During the Second World War, when it was known by the Japanese name of Kinkaseki, it was the most notorious PoW labour camp on the island and the final resting place for hundreds of British prisoners.
While one out of every twenty British prisoners in the PoW camps of Nazi Europe died, in Japanese camps that figure was out of very three ( and that doesn’t include those that died soon after from ill health). The difference in the rates was a result of tropical diseases and harsher treatment that stemmed from the Japanese despising their prisoners. According to the warrior code of surrounding, although it’s interesting to note that, contrary to popular belief, relatively few Japanese actually live up to this ideal themselves.

金瓜石戰俘煉獄
從台北沿著台灣東北海岸駕車前行，約一句鐘便可抵達九份。九份是個歷史悠久的採礦市鎮，依附著陡峭光禿的山崗而建，俯瞰太平洋。九份在發現金礦後，隨即急速發展起來，到了1930年代中期，更是燈光璀璨，橫財遍地，黃色事業蓬勃，到處也是悽苦無助的礦工，被譽為「小上海」。過了十年後，隨著金礦枯竭，整個市鎮人去樓空，燈光不再璀璨，自此一直被人遺忘。直至1989年，創新電影「悲情城市」以台灣2.28事件及這市鎮為題材，情況才有所改變。今天，九份已轉型為觀光勝地，手工藝品店及傳統茶館林立，吸引不少台北人到此遊玩一天。沿著海岸繼續前行數分鐘，便會看到連綿陡峭的崗巒，寧靜地躺於山巒底下的，就是金瓜石，那裡遍佈荒廢的礦場建築物及墓碑。二次大戰期間，這村落是台灣島上惡名昭著的戰俘勞改營，亦是數百名英國戰俘的埋葬地。
在歐洲的納粹戰俘營，每二十名英國戰俘就有一名死亡。相反,在日軍戰俘營，卻是每三名戰俘就有一名死亡（這尚不包括獲釋後隨即因疾病而死亡的人數）。出現這差異與熱帶疾病肆虐不無關係，但戰俘遭日軍藐視苛待，也是一大原因。根據日本的武士道精神，這些戰俘應在沙場力戰至陣亡，又或自行了斷，決不應投降。然而諷刺的是，其實很少日本軍人會把這精神付諸實踐，這與一般人的想法大相徑庭。
