After a record 2019, when APAC’s private debt fundraising hit $12.1bn, the following years saw a drop in comparison. However, the ship appears to be steadying, as the $6.7bn raised in 2022 so far matched the $6.7bn raised during the same period a year earlier, thanks to a banner Q2, when eight funds raised $5.7bn, with an average fund size of $715mn. The aggregate capital raised was boosted by Bain Capital’s $2bn Asia special situations fund, the largest of its kind in Asia. If this momemtum continues, fundraising in 2022 could surpass the $9.4bn raised in 2021, reflecting intact appetite for private debt investment in the region.
