ESG Investing in Asia
Talent: The region needs stewardship and actionable advice from experienced operator investors with strong networks and relationships. Investors need listening posts needed in one of the most vibrant and diverse places on Earth.
Timing is right: Valuations are depressed, and value deals can be secured in private equity class
Growth: Many Corporates in the are seeking increased exposure to growth markets: ASEAN alone is home to one billion consumers. Adding Greater China + South Asia + Middle East and Africa, the region represents much of the world’s growth and benefits from demographic dividend. Rebound tends to be accentuated in high-growth, future-oriented populations
Discontinuities create Opportunity: Health models already being reimagined to be preventative, tele-, and affordable. Innovative financial services spawning new industries and enabling super-app ecosystems.
