Truve

A Team That Knows the Ground

Truve was founded to eliminate the uncertainty and financial risks caused by cross-border information asymmetry. We transform primary Chinese commercial, legal, and regulatory records into decisive risk frameworks. Before wire transfers are released, we make every partnership clear and verifiable.

Founders

Ken Kong & Fion Yao

Ken Kong

Former executive · Baowu Group · Shanshan Group · Jinggu Co., Ltd. (金固股份)

For most of his career Ken sat on the buyer's side inside China's largest industrial groups. As a core executive (VP / Assistant to the Chairman) across Baowu Group (Fortune Global 500), Shanshan Group, and Jinggu Co., Ltd. (金固股份), he oversaw organization and talent across 70+ manufacturing centers, trading firms and logistics hubs, and led cross-border industrial investments — including setting up manufacturing in Mexico. He has personally led 300+ corporate due-diligence engagements and 700+ executive background checks covering shareholder structures, litigation, tax status and on-site verification. He founded Truve to turn that operating experience into institutional-grade risk frameworks for global buyers — so overseas companies can verify before they pay.
