    My name is Derren Joseph, and I am a part of a finance practice that works with entrepreneurs and expats doing business internationally.

    I have frequently asked for opinions that extend beyond taxation. It is not unusual for me to spend time with clients and colleagues, discussing socio-economic trends and their impact on specific geographies and industries.

    The current pandemic may be the single most important event of our lives. It will shape our world in unimaginable ways. I wrote a book hoping that it may help entrepreneurs like you and my clients, entrepreneurs who operate internationally, and must now pivot and retool themselves and their teams for what is to come.

    Yes, I must admit my more selfish motives. I also need to pivot and adapt to the unfolding revolution, A revolution in how we do business internationally. I wrote this book to improve my chances of survival.

    I decided to approach this in a more formal way than I usually do. Like many, I have read extensively. I have tried to acknowledge this by naming those responsible for ideas that are not my own. What I have also done is spoken to people.

    I have spoken to around 150 people in my network. Some are well known, but most are not. 

    What they all have in common is that they have done businesses across borders. And, in many cases, across several countries.

    I have captured a few of the interviews, as videos such as the one you are watching, but most spoke with me privately, and I must, therefore, respect their privacy.

    So, where are we now? We are bruised, battered, and scared of what awaits us.

    I hope that this book helps you, as it has helped me. My message, it’s simple, you must diversify your lifestyle.

  • [ HTJ Podcast ] Talk with Peter Beukering - Serial Entrepreneur.
    Oct 21 2020

    Peter Beukering is a Malaysia based serial entrepreneur and business investor.  Originally from the Netherlands, he and his wife have been traveling the world exploring while looking for business opportunities.  The Lockdown saw him being grounded in Kuala Lumpur.  


    As an investor with experience in several geographies, I was incredibly excited to interview Peter.  I entered the interview with a negative outlook on Asia.  Despite rising nationalism and economic contraction, Peter is bullish on Asia in general and China in particular.  He is also unafraid of commodity-dependent economies such as Malaysia and Indonesia.

  • [ HTJ Podcast ] Talk with Thomas Lee - Chairman of a group of professional services firms.
    Oct 21 2020

    Thomas Lee is the Chairman of a group of professional services firms based in Hong Kong, with offices in Macau and China. They offer IPO, financial, tax, and corporate services.  In the interest of full disclosure, Thomas’ entity is a member of Moores Rowland Asia Pacific, so we are a part of the same accounting network. 


    In our conversation, we spoke about his views on the social and economic impact of the pandemic.  He believes that the pandemic created nothing new but merely accelerated pre-existing trends.  Hong Kong is expected to continue its transition from being a special administrative region to another city in China.  He doesn’t see the complete assimilation of Hong Kong, given the special role that the city plays in China’s financial markets.

  • [ HTJ Podcast ] Talk with Peter Sengelmann - Chief Investment Officer and International Financial Advisor.
    Oct 21 2020

    Peter Sengelmann is a Chief Investment Officer and International Financial Advisor based in the US.  He, however, travels extensively as he works with American expats and international entrepreneurs across the world.  I met him while he was traveling through Asia.

    Peter provided one of the more engaging economic commentaries so far.  We consider not just economics, however but explore the financial markets and politics in some detail.  The impact on rising social inequality is also made clear. Still, he does end on an optimistic note given the human spirit's creative nature, capacity for innovation, and limitless technology potential.  After speaking with him, I came up with the title for my book.
