Great to return to Asia last week to visit existing clients and meet new ones. Blue Owl Capital has been expanding its presence in the region, moving our Asia flagship office to One Exchange Square in Hong Kong and opening a new office in Tokyo in 2023. It’s clear from our dialogue how much progress we have made since my visit a year ago, and I am excited to see the growing interest in direct lending throughout the region. Thank you so much to team for hosting me for the week and making me feel so welcome, I look forward to visiting again soon.

It's always an honor to host our esteemed GPs and LPs clients at one of our most eagerly awaited annual PE/VC luncheons, in collaboration with our partners at the Singapore Venture and Private Capital Association. We extend our deepest appreciation to the 60 senior attendees who actively engaged in our discussions reflecting on the past year's dealmaking. Our data highlighted a turbulent year for private equity, with a 35% drop in Southeast Asia’s deal value to US$9 billion and a 24% decrease in deal volume. Despite concerns about exit conditions and limited deal opportunities, Southeast Asia remains resilient and strategically important. The region’s underpenetrated PE/VC sector offers investors a reason for optimism, especially with green shoots emerging in key sectors such as alternative funds, healthcare, fintech, and consumer products. To re-ignite deal momentum, we need to address several issues: tackling exit overhang, enhancing the role of public markets in improving exit environments, and prioritizing operational improvements to drive returns. We look forward to continuing these important discussions and exploring new opportunities for growth in the coming year.

🎉 Gordian Capital – 20 years 🎉 As we quietly celebrate 20 years, I wanted to thank the key parties that supported us in achieving that milestone. Firstly, our team: my business partner Stan Howard, our senior management, Anil, Janessa, Cherie and Alvaro, our hard working department heads and their dedicated staff (some relaxing between photoshoots, below). Secondly, our clients, ranging from highly experienced investment professionals to $100bn+ alternative giants. Thirdly, our investors, all the way from HNWI to Sovereign Wealth Funds, governments, pension funds and major financial institutions. Entrepreneurs don’t exist in a vacuum, so lastly a big thank you to all those who generously gave their time and advice along the way. There are too many to count but perhaps I can mention Christopher Wells and Peter Douglas, both key supporters in the early days. Over the period, we have launched 113 funds, built relationships with 160 service providers, moved our Singapore office five times, expanded to Tokyo, Melbourne, Shanghai and Hong Kong and today currently manage US$14.7bn. Looking forward to the next 20!

1,100 versus 2,700 Stringent requirements vs less stringent On paper, the impression of Hong Kong being more family office friendly seems to be legit. Taking away the compliance requirements aside, Singapore family offices already face one big concern. “Whats next for SFOs after setting up in Singapore?” At the 2023 WMI conference , one family office poised a challenge to private bankers. “Are you able to provide attractive access to investment opportunities other than structured investments products?” If Singapore can’t present real investment advantages or opportunities to SFOs. SFOs may not be wrong to only consider tax advantages to setup their funds in Singapore. If Singapore only aims to attract the best and elite family offices here, do remember that the pyramid top need the base and a mid to stay on top. #sfo #familyoffice #ledgengrouo

As market dynamics evolve, family offices, particularly in Southeast Asia, are increasing their allocation to private assets, driven by ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNWI) seeking diversification. Singapore, as a hub for Southeast Asia, is attracting attention due to its dynamic economy and role as a holding vehicle for international portfolios. Derrick Tan of WRISE Group sees Southeast Asia becoming a prime destination for family offices, with Singapore and Hong Kong's financial ecosystems supporting this growth. He also sees increasing interest in private credit and alternative asset classes, which offers diversification and potentially higher returns amidst market volatility. WRISE's expansion into Dubai, Japan, and Taiwan reflects the broader trend of wealth globalisation, driven by evolving market forces and regulatory changes in the wealth management industry in Asia.
