Redefining the Asian Growth Story

17-19 July, 2013
Shangri-La

 

While markets in Asia are growing at slower rates than in recent years, competition remains fierce across the private equity landscape, creating a challenging fundraising and deal sourcing environment for many GPs. Exit markets across the region are also causing concern as fund managers in Asia look for ways to deliver meaningful returns to their investors.

Join the region's most important fund managers and limited partners on 17-19 July at the AVCJ Singapore Forum, the leading private equity and venture capital gathering in the region. Attendees will hear three days of expert debates, keynote interviews, case studies and war stories focused on recent deals, market activity and the private equity issues that have been making the headlines.

Topics at the event will include:

  • What is the global outlook for PE in 2013 and how does South-East Asia compare to Europe and the US as an investment destination?
  • What lessons can be learned from the past decade of Indian PE?
  • Does South-East Asia necessitate adopting a flexible approach in terms of deal size and controlling versus non-controlling stakes?
  • Is the growth that China's PE industry has seen in the past two years sustainable in the long term?
  • How can Indonesia avoid making the same mistakes as India as it develops further?
  • What factors are causing the difficult exit environment and how can investors get the returns they desire?
  • What emerging markets will fund managers be betting on as the next big destination for PE?
  • In the last twelve months how have successful funds secured commitments from regional and global LPs?
