Cambodian Investment Management Holding, founded in 2009 by Anthony Galliano, was established with a clear vision of leveraging the Kingdom’s favorable business environment to create a thriving enterprise. With its roots firmly planted in Cambodia, the company has grown significantly over the years, expanding its services and diversifying its operations. **Early Years**
The journey began with the launch of Cambodian Investment Management, the first company in the Kingdom, focusing on company registration, corporate secretarial services, corporate finance, and advisory services. The company’s early success was largely due to the ease of doing business in Cambodia, with its attractive government policies, favorable tax rates, and business-friendly government. The country’s strategic location and dollarized economy also made it an attractive destination for entrepreneurs and businesses looking to expand their operations. Key benefits of doing business in Cambodia include:
- 100% foreign ownership
- Low minimum capital requirement of $1,000
- Favorable tax rates
- Dollarized economy
- Business-friendly government
These factors made Cambodia an ideal location for Anthony Galliano, who had over 20 years of experience in international banking. He chose to establish his proprietary business in Cambodia, taking advantage of the country’s growth potential. **Expansion and Diversification**
As the company grew, so did its services. In 2014, Phnom Penh BG Serviced Office was established to cater to the growing demand for serviced offices and co-working spaces. This was followed by the launch of Cambodian Investment Management Tax services, a licensed tax agent, and Affinity Star Insurance Broker, a licensed insurance broker. The company’s clients required various services, including corporate registration, tax services, insurance services, and accounting services. To meet these needs, Cambodian Investment Management Accounting Services was formed, with five Certified Public Accountants and highly skilled Khmer accountants. Premium Human Resources was established in 2015 to provide recruitment, human resource services, work permits, visas, Professional Employer Organization Employer of Record services, and payroll services. **Recent Developments**
In recent years, the company has made significant strides in expansion and diversification. The group recently acquired a 90% stake in B2B Cambodia, now B2B Media News, a business news portal across all social media channels. The latest venture is Vantage Asset Properties, a real estate broker, adviser, and investment arranger. The group has also acquired a 40% stake in OBOR Management, a licensed Fund Manager, and is an investor in Wowee Advertising and Backyard Café. These investments demonstrate the company’s commitment to growth and expansion. **Milestones**
The group has achieved several key milestones over the years. In 2016, Tanncam Investment acquired 40% of Cambodian Investment Management, injecting capital and laying the foundation for the company’s growth and expansion. In 2025, Cambodian Investment Management Accounting Services assimilated into the Moores Rowland network and rebranded as Moores Rowland (Cambodia). This was a significant upgrade and boost to the group’s accounting and tax business, extending the product offering into areas such as Environmental, Social & Governance Reporting. The group has also expanded geographically, establishing Star Insurance Agency in Vietnam, Star Insurance Broker in Laos, and Lotus Business Processing Outsourcing in Vietnam. **Future Growth**
The group’s CEO, Anthony Galliano, believes that the path ahead is more promising than the achievements of the past. He emphasizes the importance of delivering a unified hub of business services, cross-selling products with a core select group of relationships. “The intention is to launch digital products which are can be geographically transported, leveraging a centralized digital production center,” Galliano says. The group is embracing growth and expansion in its Digital Asset Division, with a focus on launching digital products that can be transported geographically. “The best is yet to come as we embrace the new digital economy to drive our future growth and expansion,” Galliano adds. The company’s emphasis on growth and expansion is driven by its CEO’s vision for the future. He firmly believes in the growth of the financial and capital markets in the Kingdom and intends to be a major player in the nascent capital markets as they evolve and transform to be one of the core pillars of the economy.
