Private capital AUM focused on the region has expanded almost sixfold over the past decade, rising from $388bn at the end of 2011 to $1.71tn in September 2020 according to Preqin. This shift is happening in tandem with a diminishing number of public listings in the US, as well as several countries in Asia, including Singapore and Indonesia. Modern companies are increasingly shying away from IPOs, resulting in more limited public investment opportunities.
