Dear [name of manager],

I’d like to expense a subscription to Asian Century Stocks. It’s a newsletter focusing on equities in the Asia-Pacific, helping with idea generation and background research on those ideas.  

As a subscriber, I get over 20 deep-dive reports each year on stocks in Japan, China, Singapore, Australia and New Zealand above a US$50 million market cap limit. These reports are on stocks you normally wouldn’t come across in sell-side research. I also get access to thematic reports that help me expand my knowledge across a variety of industries. 

The newsletter costs $350/year ($45/month). If it helps us identify even a single investment each year, then the newsletter will pay for itself many times over. It’s an incredible deal. 

Let me know if you’re fine with this.

Thanks,

[Your name]
