On 25 September, Debevoise sponsored and moderated a panel at
the Asia-Pacific Fund Finance Symposium hosted by the Fund Finance
Association in Hong Kong.
Below is the first of a two-part summary of a few key topics
discussed during what was an enlightening day for all those in
attendance.
THE ASIAN MARKET—RELEVANT TRENDS
- Asian economies:
Asia remains a growing market, led by China, but other countries in
Asia are increasingly important. With trade friction globally,
there is a view that country economies globally are decoupling, and
this may be an opportunity for individual companies to take centre
stage.
- Private capital
assets: Asian assets under management have risen
materially in the last few years. This growth is accelerating. Much
of the increase stems from private equity but also infra and
private credit.
