Synopsis

Singapore’s status as an international financial centre makes it a hub for all forms of financial services, including private equity. Moreover, with Asia-based private equity firms growing at a far faster rate than their European and North American counterparts, Singapore’s connectivity to the Asia-Pacific region poses a strategic advantage. In 2019, David Rubinstein, co-founder of private equity firm Carlyle Group, spotlighted Singapore as the best place for a private equity firm to be based. Through strategic investments across multiple industries across all stages of business growth, private equity firms generate value for investors while driving forward the investment landscape.
