Session details

1. The LP View: Geographies and strategies that will matter in 2025 & beyond

Asia being a non-homegenous geography requires asset allocators to tweak their strategies as they approach different markets such as India, Greater China, SE Asia and mature markets like Korea and Japan. For instance, from a macro level, SE Asia boasts of sizable population and diverse economies, but lack of a strong exit environment poses a challenge. Apart from geography, LPs are also looking at multiple strategies to stay ahead in the market. LPs are coming to the forefront with direct investments, co-investment strategies, secondaries, and continuation funds, especially in the post-pandemic period. How are LPs approaching the varied landscape in Asia especially amid the larger global context?

2. Global investor perspectives on China: The truth about its investability

As China continues to deal with headwinds this year amid economic uncertainties, property crisis, and geopolitcal tensions — a question mark remains regarding its investability. While some investors continue to hold strong with their bullish sentiment, others are divesting from the country, either pulling the capital back to their home markets or looking to other bright spots in the region for similar growth stories. So where exactly are investors looking to if they want to double down on China?

3. Will the India story stay compelling for asset allocators?

India’s macroeconomic drivers and demographics are presenting a strong case for global and domestic asset allocators alike. The country’s growth trajectory, robust stock markets, urbanisation trends, rising income levels and young workforce make the India opportunity appealing to the investor community. Furthermore, with the China Plus One strategy gaining momentum, Asian countries like India are well-positioned to tap the opportunities. What will it take for LPs to continue placing their bets on India?

4. Asian family offices recalibrating investment strategies amid global headwinds                    

Family offices in Asia have raised the stakes when it comes to their commitments the alternative asset class. However, setting up family offices comes with regulatory compliance challenges,  and investment requirements. This panel will unpack all the opportunities and obstacles for family offices in the region. Where are HNWIs choosing to park their wealth amid competition between Hong Kong and Singapore as financial hubs?

5. Fireside chat: How China’s state capital is redefining the PE-VC ecosystem

The pullback of US dollar investors, alongside high-interest rates and macro uncertainties, has created a dynamic shift in the 21-trillion-yuan (almost $3 trillion) private fund industry in China that has seen the rising participation of RMB-denominated government capital in tech innovations and startup incubation. As state capital rises to prominence, how are they going to reshape the Chinese PE/VC market and GP-LP dynamics?
