As the market matures and the wider business community across Asia gains a better understanding of private equity, a next level of private equity investors is emerging. Funds can no longer rely on just market beta to boost their results and need to look at new ways to deliver value and increase returns. LPs also are becoming more sophisticated and look to allocate to the few true winners versus those who are struggling with returns. So what is the outlook for the industry, and how have both global and domestic developments this year impacted LP sentiment, valuations and deal flow and the expectations for the next vintage? • What is the outlook for Asian private equity for 2015? • Are Asian investors turning their heads back to home markets? • How are local and international regulations and political changes affecting the private equity landscape? • Did the exit market deliver this year?

So how can firms continue to remain relevant and successfully reinvent their brand, increase and diversify their skill sets and offer a wider suite of services, asset types and terms to LPs? • How and why are firms progressively diversifying into real assets, debt and mezzanine finance, and secondaries, and has this now been accepted as an industry standard? • Is the required skill set changing for private equity professionals now that there is an emphasis on operational expertise and a departure into investments outside of the portfolio model? • How are funds of funds differentiating themselves from the competition? Are separate accounts growing in importance? • Can FOFs ensure that they stay relevant and continue to be a key component of the private equity ecosystem?

Where you choose to form your fund and how it is administered, along with the methods and tools you employ to track and report, are critical. So what are the latest trends and regulatory developments impacting the industry, and how are the experts working to find the best solutions for GPs? • How will the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive impact the ability of European investors to access Asian markets and Asian fund managers to market their funds? • How should you structure a fund in terms of selecting a domicile and providing provisions for co-investment, reduced fee and carry terms on a deal-by-deal basis, parallel funds and exit timing? • Which tracking methods or systems provide the richest fund performance data for daily decision-making and reporting? • Which tools can you use to review portfolio transactions and balances to ensure compliance with investment restrictions?

The interest surrounding impact investing has not yet translated into a substantial increase in the amount of capital deployed and exits realised. So how can PE funds align their interests with their investors who already have an appetite for high-risk, high-return investment and develop credible products, metrics and expertise in the field of impact investment to earn both a financial and a social return? • Does the private equity business model need to be modified to reflect the scale and rate of return when making an impact investment? • What examples exist of the private equity industry earning a market rate of return and significant social returns through impact investing? • Do the scale and execution issues related to impact investing mean it may only ever remain a niche activity in the private equity world? • What investments and markets are on the radar for GPs in the realm of impact investments?

Be it a high-profile hire or a star performer who has risen through the ranks, it is imperative that funds plan and manage this very public process. What are PE funds doing to ensure they have the right succession plan, and how can they prepare for staffing changes so they are viewed as an undisruptive and positive transformation by the industry, investors and media? • Is there a significant talent pool in place below the founders to lead the GP to the next stage? • Is it wise to communicate future staff changes to your LPs when fundraising? • What have the top GPs done to keep their leadership team in place, and do they have a a staffing strategy? • What incentives, partnerships, and promotions and career paths can you develop to attract future industry leaders to your firm?

Global consumer trends and advancements in technologies and services that have a worldwide reach are attracting investors to the asset class and providing the potential for mega returns. Fundraising is strong and optimism high. Venture is also featuring highly on governments’ agendas in Asia, with a number of government-backed initiatives. But what has changed with both the approach of VC funds and the external forces that drive opportunity, and how can we create a sustainable and steady VC industry? • What are the contributing factors that have seen resurgence in interest and activity for VC? • How can Singapore, Hong Kong and Beijing emulate the culture of Silicon Valley and create a hub for start-ups? • What types of methods, size of multiples and scale of activity are predicted over the next 12 months for exits? • What are industry experts’ predictions for the next tech innovation for Internet and mobile?

With large pools of capital and defined mandates to invest, they have helped to change the LP base and are high priority for GPs looking to fundraise. They are also increasingly looking back to Asia to make allocations, further strengthening the region’s attractiveness. In fact, many LPs are developing a local presence, but what does this mean for international LPs who don’t have teams on the ground but who have historically been big allocators to the region? • How have domestic and global LPs’ local offices driven the direct and co-investment theme? • Do larger LPs with bigger mandates receive more favourable terms? • Does a lack of quality managers discourage LPs with allocations to make from investing in Asia? • How do multi-strategy funds potentially create a misalignment of interests for LPs?

However, the industry is enjoying a resurgence of interest across industries such as healthcare, education and tech. What new models are VCs employing and how do they differ from the past models that failed to catch fire? • How do the public markets affect venture today? If the IPO window closes, are we in trouble? • Is the pace of innovation matching technology advancements in the areas of IT, mobile, social media, wearable devices and the Internet of Things, creating a myriad of opportunities for VC? • Besides Internet and mobile, which other sectors are providing venture with attractive investment opportunities-healthcare, energy and utilities, electronics, life sciences? • How are Asian cities attempting to recreate the Silicon Valley start-up model, and what role does government play in becoming a tech hub?

VC investment in mobile topped USD1bn for the first time ever in a single quarter for both the third and fourth quarters of 2013, and total VC funding to mobile reached over USD3.5bn for the year. Companies that engage in well-known mobile applications like gaming and photography are still thriving but less ubiquitous application categories like mobile payments, location-based services and travel have all caught the eyes of investors. A panel of avid investors will debate the future trends in the tech space and how VC can be at the forefront of the industry. • From gaming and photography to mobile payments and location-based services, how and where can VCs find the companies in a sea of start-ups that will have the edge to succeed? • What type of services and applications will the world need in the future that will capture a global user base? • With VC investment in mobile reaching an all-time high and investors piling on cash to companies that are yet to turn a profit, is there a danger of false expectations creating a bubble? • Which markets provide the greatest potential in terms of technology consumer demand for VCs to exploit? • How are technology companies addressing the combative issue of data security?

Investment Summit Sourcing business founders with fantastic ideas that are scalable and commercial is challenging. VC’s have to search through a myriad of ideas and often battle with their competitors to strike a deal and invest during the early stage. So how do seasoned venture capitalists source and predict technologies that will align with consumer behaviours in the future and become the next Facebook or Alibaba, and what hubs outside of Silicon Valley are currently viewed as the regions for innovation? • Do you need to diversify and employ a broader approach to investible industries to match the markets and cultures you are targeting? • Are high seed-stage valuations making it difficult for start-ups to raise Series A? Are valuations unduly inflated? • In spite of soaring valuations, are we likely to avoid another crash because of the larger global opportunity that now exists for cloud computing, mobile tech and the Internet? • How are corporate VCs accelerating growth through early-stage investments that align with their core business? • How have accelerators, incubators, cluster groups and government initiatives in Asia helped to develop a community of start-ups and entrepreneurs?

Also, as recent successful fundraises by VC firms in the region suggest, is now an opportune time to visit LPs and start fundraising? • What are the realised and expected returns that LPs are expecting (and hoping) from VC? • Where in the region to LPs feel comfortable with investment? Which markets do they currently deem too risky? • What effects are macroeconomic conditions having on the VC industry in China, and are they a cause for concern for LPs considering making commitments? • What funds have delivered stand-out returns in Asia and are viewed by LPs as best in class? Moderated by: Ian O’Donnell, Partner, COOLEY Alison Nankivell, Vice-president, Venture Capital Action Plan, BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT BANK OF CANADA David Chan, Head of Asia, MLC PRIVATE EQUITY Jessica Archibald, Managing Director, TOP TIER CAPITAL PARTNERS, LLC 16:15 5 reasons to attend SCHEDULE OF EVENTS The birth of a new wave of angel investors is providing early-stage start-ups with a funding alternative. Many of the old-line VC firms are focused on late-stage growth capital, so angels are providing seed capital and expertise to develop good ideas into great businesses, while accepting a higher risk, with the hope of a higher return. How are super angel investors reinventing the start-up economy, and are we seeing in Asia a recreation of the Silicon Valley model, where the entrepreneurs behind the first generation of start-ups began backing the next generation, creating a self-sustaining ecosystem? • Are super angels getting first refusal on the best new ideas because they are less demanding of entrepreneurs than VCs and because of the magnetic effect their participation has on other investors? • What super angel groups or networks exist in Asia? • Has the disruptive nature of super angels caused friction with VC firms as they compete for deals? • Why are established and renowned venture capitalists choosing to raise new money in a super angel fund?

With large pools of capital and defined mandates to invest, they have helped to change the LP base and are high priority for GPs looking to fundraise. They are also increasingly looking back to Asia to make allocations, further strengthening the region’s attractiveness. In fact, many LPs are developing a local presence, but what does this mean for international LPs who don’t have teams on the ground but who have historically been big allocators to the region? • How have domestic and global LPs’ local offices driven the direct and co-investment theme? • Do larger LPs with bigger mandates receive more favourable terms? • Does a lack of quality managers discourage LPs with allocations to make from investing in Asia? • How do multi-strategy funds potentially create a misalignment of interests for LPs?

MORGAN FUNDS Asian private equity in 2014 (Joint session with the PE Leaders’ and Venture Capital Summits) Who should attend? 10:30 Forum at a glance An upswing in exit activity and capital inflows into the region from LPs is creating a greater level of optimism across Asia compared with 12 months ago. As the market matures and the wider business community across Asia gains a better understanding of private equity, a next level of private equity investors is emerging. Funds can no longer rely on just market beta to boost their results and need to look at new ways to deliver value and increase returns. LPs also are becoming more sophisticated and look to allocate to the few true winners versus those who are struggling with returns. So what is the outlook for the industry, and how have both global and domestic developments this year impacted LP sentiment, valuations and deal flow and the expectations for the next vintage? • What is the outlook for Asian private equity for 2015? • Are Asian investors turning their heads back to home markets? • How are local and international regulations and political changes affecting the private equity landscape? • Did the exit market deliver this year?

China will continue to remain one of the biggest global players in the future and will always have a place in investors’ portfolios. South-east Asia also remains strong; with a burgeoning middle class, the consumer markets will continue to flourish. What is clear is that Asia needs to be a carefully thought out plan with allocations in the right sectors in the right funds. • Why should Asia be part of a diversified global portfolio? • Which markets and sectors are still attractive for investors: healthcare, education, agriculture? • If you get into the right funds with the right deals, does Asia deliver? • How has the evolving role of the fund of fund created opportunities for investors?

The key to success is taking your time and conducting proper and accurate due diligence. The challenge remains in seeing the longer-term picture when investments are slower to deliver. • Which is the best allocation strategy in Asia when the hot markets are so fickle? • Is this the year for real numbers for LPs, and what tough questions should they be asking? • How do you find quality managers in Asia? What is most important: track record, team structure, other factors? • How is private equity stacking up against other asset classes?

While the bigger funds have evolved to service many platforms, there is also something to be said for the funds that have concentrated on a niche strategy executed well. As they become more sophisticated, LPs consider the issue of manager selection to be more crucial than ever. • How has the LP base changed, and where do the big commitments to private equity come from now? • What skill set do you need to run a global private equity platform? • Do multiplatform fund managers create a misalignment of interests for LPs? • What capabilities do top-performing funds need to set them apart from their peers?

The Asian private equity industry is in a stage of transformation as it evolves into a maturing market. With maturity comes the survival of the fittest, who continue to raise funds, select great deals and achieve superior returns. Our private equity leaders discuss Asia’s place in a global context: why Asia should sit firmly in LPs’ portfolios now and in the future, and how to build a sustainable platform for private equity in Asia. • Why should Asia be part of a global LP’s portfolio? • Has Asian private equity delivered? Have the return drivers changed? • What does sustainability for PE in Europe and North America mean for Asia? • How do GPs and LPs see the private equity model changing? Does this affect your investment strategy in Asia? Moderated by: John E.

While the exit market stalled the market consolidated, fundraising was tougher and valuations came down. To counteract these developments, value-creation strategies became more prevalent in portfolio companies and domestic firms were forced to become more sophisticated. Investors have also realised that Chinese private equity needs to be viewed as long-term investing and not short-term speculation. • What is the reality of investing in a new China? • Did the potential re-opening of the IPO market materialise expected returns, and what is the impact of Chinese firms listing abroad? • Have new LPs such as insurance companies really had an impact on the landscape? • How is the evolution and reform of the financial services sector creating opportunities for private equity? Moderated by: Marcia Ellis, Partner, MORRISON & FOERSTER Tun Lin, Chief Economist and Executive Vice-president, HONY CAPITAL YR Cheng, Partner, LUNAR CAPITAL MANAGEMENT VC Summit Track 2: The year of power and energy LP Summit Driven by economic and industrial development and higher living standards, Asia’s energy demands are set to increase year on year. The Asian Development Bank estimates that Asia will need investment of USD11.7trn in the energy sector between 2010 and 2035. The opportunities for private equity are vast and firms are presented with an irresistible opportunity. However valuations are high and high profile failure of some big deals means investors remain cautious. • Are power and utilities the best investments in Asia? • Is private equity playing its biggest role in deregulated areas such as natural gas? • Where should renewable energy fit into the picture? Is it just a fad? • How can private equity ferret out the rich pockets of opportunity in the oil and gas sector?

Track 2: Opportunities in private debt Forum at a glance Increased corporate debt, slowed growth, overexpansion and mismanagement have added pressure to Asian company balance sheets and forced a number of companies to become distressed. This situation has led to a number of opportunities for private equity to step in to fix financials and improve performance. A panel of distressed experts will discuss this trend. • As global GPs establish debt funds, will this trend expand to Asia-Pacific GPs? • Where does private debt fit in an LP’s allocation strategy, and are these allocations increasing? • Are there sufficient mezzanine and distressed-debt opportunities in Asia to make it attractive for LPs, or will they continue to look to the US and Europe? • Will private debt remain a niche business, or become more accessible?

Moderated by: Doug A Coulter, Partner, LGT CAPITAL PARTNERS Speakers 16:35 Track 1: Southeast Asia: Sustaining momentum and seeking growth PE Leaders’ Summit Southeast Asia remains one of the most promising regions in Asia and continues to draw interest from the global community. The fundamentals remain strong, with a burgeoning middle class and huge consumer demand. However, with political uncertainty and currency issues, opportunities remain opportunistic and returns slow. A panel of experts discuss how the dynamics are changing, how they see the ASEAN region developing and where you have to position yourself to take advantage of these opportunities. • Why does the country versus regional debate still rage? Is this even more prevalent in Southeast Asia? • How have currency issues increased investor appetite? • Is it best to take an opportunistic approach when looking at Southeast Asia? • As the shine has dulled on Indonesia, where is the next exciting investment destination?

This is especially true in Asia, with its unmet healthcare needs. An ageing and more affluent population coupled with increased incidences of disease present numerous investment opportunities. China, with its healthcare reforms, is one of the regions attracting the most interest, coupled with India. Private equity investors have scope to shape the healthcare landscape of the future.

Pension funds, sovereign wealth funds and endowments are left with numerous choices, including private equity fund of funds and the gatekeeper model. However, many LPs are no longer happy to be mere asset allocators, and many look for co-investment deals and direct investment opportunities. With any shift in the playing field, this changing model raises many questions around capabilities skill sets, competition and relationships. • Why do alternatives continue to remain attractive, and why do allocations to private equity continue to increase? • How is “shadow capital” controlled by big institutional investors flaming competition for deals? • As the line between LPs and GPs blurs, is there better co-operation and enhanced relationships, and in return better investments and higher returns? • With more discussion around direct investments, do many LPs have the operating capabilities to go direct?

Private equity is perfectly placed to help Japanese companies looking for growth outside of Japan due to a competitive local market and also for corporate divestment. However, a tough fundraising climate has led a number of funds to close short of their hard caps. South Korea continues to remain attractive as the sheen wears off of other parts of Asia. Domestic firms continue to thrive with successful fundraising, growing sophistication and development of solid track records. Although very different markets, some of the challenges are similar in South Korea and Japan: a lack of trust by family-owned businesses and a competitive marketplace. Country-specific experts discuss the challenges and opportunities. • How will the new GPIF allocation to alternatives open the floodgates for private equity? • After a stellar year for exits last year in Japan, will the market continue to deliver? • With an ever-increasing and successful domestic GP group, is South Korea still open to foreign investment? • How does the wealth and size of the chaebols continue to present a problem and opportunity for private equity?

From seed capital searching for the next disruptive technology, to billion-dollar M&A acquisitions like that of WhatsApp, predicting where viral lightning will strike next is motivating VCs across the region in the search for great entrepreneurs and products. Which factors have contributed to this rise in VC, is this likely to last and how are fund managers across the region maximising the opportunity? • What has driven the new breed of venture, and how is it different from the previous incarnation? • To what extent can China’s mobile and Internet business revolution continue to grow? • As corporate venture moves from seed to M&A, where are the new opportunities? • Will the Internet of Things and wearable technologies be the next disruptive technologies with mass appeal? • Where is the next sunrise industry going to emerge in China?

A declining rupee and slowing growth have caused the exit market to stall and investors to get jittery. However, foreign and domestic firms are becoming more disciplined and sophisticated in terms of investing. Improved due diligence and lower valuations mean many foreign firms feel businesses are ripe for picking. This distinguished panel discusses the new wave of Indian private equity. • How do local GPs need to adapt in order to prosper in the new India? • With the need for power and transport infrastructure well known, which other key areas of infrastructure development will attract investment into India? Is a new wave of discounted opportunities set to come to market? • How have political changes in India affected private equity?

However, in the past year, buoyed by some strong trade sales and IPO activity, exits in Asia have amounted to $49.4 billion YTD, higher than any full-year figure on record except 2012 ($53.5 billion). 2014 is also seeing secondary deals play an increasingly important role in the exit equation, further compounding the fact that the Asia private equity market is maturing. This expert panel will discuss the changing landscape and key themes for exiting existing portfolio companies in 2015. • How has the exit landscape evolved in Asia? • Are sponsor-to-sponsor transactions still a faux pas? Are sales to secondary funds an accepted mode of exit? • What is the appetite from corporates for M&A? Which industries have the most active buyers? • Has the reopening of IPOs in certain markets revitalized the exits for PE firms in Asia or does more need to happen?

The sale of Oriental Brewery with its 5x return and the Alibaba IPO have proven that with the right skills you can transform local companies into global organisations that can prosper and grow on an international scale. However, as with any buzzword there has been some caution on how firms can really deliver value in some regions, especially when minority deals are still prevalent. Our specialists discuss how to truly deliver value. • How do PE firms develop their skill sets, processes and procedures for implementing standardised operational improvement? • What company-wide analysis can be performed to identify areas where change can assist in improving the bottom line? • How can you measure the effectiveness of your people and processes for continuous improvement of your alpha-generating capabilities? • What options are available if your new management strategies are met with resistance?

Japan and South Korea are both looking not only to the West but also to opportunities in South-east Asia. China continues to be a gateway for both inbound and outbound expansion. Our panel looks in-depth at how to add value and drive returns after the original investment. • What happens post-acquisition-in reality, how do you manage these portfolio companies? • With a lot of currency risk, how do you manage returns? • As risk transcends markets, how do you align vested interests in each market? What is the impact of hard and cultural risks? • While this has been a mostly Chinese phenomenon, which countries are now looking at more expansion abroad?

Competition 14:00 among countries and companies that desire to compete on a global scale has led to numerous opportunities for private equity to play Track 2: Private equity in real estate Who should attend? As firms continue to develop, separate real estate funds are a growing part of the private equity market. China, India and Japan lead the charge with investment, but there are still a number of barriers to entry. The key question is how managers can add value. Additionally, with more Asian institutional investors looking for growth abroad, the capital allocator model provides exposure without the skill set. However, the traditional operator model still has a place. • Which property sectors are more attractive and accessible in Asia? • Asian investors are increasingly active outside of Asia. Which markets present the best investment destinations? • With a number of Asian fund managers raising separate real estate, will this cause a deal flow issue? • How are GP-LP dynamics and alignment of interests evolving?
