Founded in 2006, Asia Alternatives Management LLC is a solution platform for institutional investors to invest in private equity across Asia.

With its research, investment and client service infrastructure solely dedicated to Asia private equity fund investments, Asia Alternatives seeks to be the "partner of choice" for global institutional investors who desire to participate in the diverse and fast growing Asian alternative investment markets.

A core part of Asia Alternatives' business model is a commitment to have an open, transparent working partnership with investors to build their Asia private equity programs. This includes helping to educate investors on Asia, providing best-practice reporting and leading market research on Asia private equity, and ensuring dedicated, on-call investor service support.

The Firm diversifies its investment program by targeting private equity fund managers in Greater China (Mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong), Japan, Korea, South East Asia, Australia and India. By sub-asset class, the Firm intends to seek opportunities across buyout, growth and expansion, venture capital, and special situation strategies.

The Asia Alternatives investment team leverages its local presence, knowledge and experience to generate deal flow, gain a competitive edge in transactions, and create value post-investment.
