COMING EVENT
RMB Private Equity funds have witnessed another year of strong growth, accounted for 65% of the number of deals and 55% of total investment amount in the China Private Equity market. The notable phenomenon is the establishment of RMB funds by Foreign fund managers, while Domestic fund managers are raising foreign currency funds. Going forward, how will these two forces interact and affect the ecosystem and the competitive landscape? What is the impact on fund raising, investments, portfolio monitoring, and exits?
