Investors gravitate to Asia-Pacific

Chart

In the face of the global headwinds, this is one part of the world that appears to be looking relatively attractive.

Since beginning to gather momentum in the aftermath of the global financial crisis, fundraising for Asia-Pacific private debt reached a record high last year of $11 billion. Although this is only slightly ahead of the totals reached in 2015, 2018 and 2019, it may be a sign that fundraising is beginning to take off when considered alongside the $7 billion raised in the first half of this year.
