Investment Approach
We take a proactive approach to investing. Our investment professionals first identify key market and industrial sector trends and then search for potential winners from the relevant markets, sectors or industries.
Our evaluation is carried out through rigorous quantitative and qualitative research, including on-the-ground and face-to-face due diligence. We create a balanced portfolio through appropriate diversification by geography, investment stage and industrial sectors in line with the funds' mandates, while taking into account risk and return considerations.
What we look for
We invest in companies with:
- Experienced and dedicated management team
- Unique competitive advantages
- Significant entry barrier
- Significant earnings and growth potential
- Attractive entry price
Risk Considerations
For each investment opportunity, we assess the risks involved in each of the categories below. We generally do not invest in a deal that encompasses more than two high risk factors:
- Management risk
- Market risk
- Technology risk
- Execution risk
- Financing risk
- Regulatory risk
Geography
We invest primarily in companies in the ASEAN-China Growth Corridor.
Investment Size & Stage
We invest in companies at the expansion/growth stage. We make investments of up to US$25 million, depending on the funding requirement of the companies.
