We focus exclusively on privately-negotiated investments in Asia, seeking either majority or shared control. We invest opportunistically across industries, including real estate, one of the biggest publicly listed businesses in the region. In Asia, we believe the distinction among traditional alternative investment styles – buyout, growth,distressed, mezzanine, PIPEs, activist, real estate opportunity, etc. – is relatively meaningless. Indeed, many of our most successful deals have combined elements of several of these styles. We make the investment suit the opportunity.
