As the secondary market continues to grow to offer liquidity options for limited partners (LPs), APAC fund managers have started to get themselves involved in the so-called GP-led transactions.
Asia’s private equity AUM is still less than 30% of the global AUM for the asset class, offering room for different strategies to flourish. Furthermore, a sparse exit market, underperformance amid macroeconomic uncertainties, and additional capital requirements are some trends driving GPs to look at the secondary market.
However, GP-led deals in APAC are still scattered due to the complexities of the transaction in a largely untapped market.
What is the impact of GP-led transactions from both GP and LP perspectives?
Are the catalysts in APAC strong enough to accelerate GP-led deals?
This panel discussion among active secondary investors in APAC will uncover what it takes for GP-led transactions in the region to grow.
