Asia Excluding China Sees $100B Capital Surge, Japan Benefits
Asia, excluding China, has seen a surge in capital inflows, totalling around $100 billion over the past nine months. This trend, driven by global shifts and regional opportunities, has Japan as a key beneficiary. Meanwhile, China's equity market is thriving, fuelled by domestic investors and tech interest.
The capital influx has been particularly notable in South Korea, Indonesia, and India. South Korea's allure lies in its advancements in AI, robotics, biotech, and renewable energies. Indonesia's growing middle class and production facilities have also drawn investments. India's growth, bolstered by public investments and bond market inclusion, is attractive in sectors like AI, biotech, semiconductors, and renewable energy.
Japan has been a significant recipient, benefiting from the region's capital inflow trend. The technology, consumer discretionary, and industrial sectors are seeing strong interest across Asia.
China, despite recent foreign fund hesitations, is experiencing increased deal activity. Multinationals are exploring capital options, and succession-driven sales are on the rise. A pipeline of exits is building up, expected to be seen in the next six months. Healthcare is also gaining traction in Asia's private markets.
The reshaped globalisation, driven by geopolitics and energy constraints, has led to a significant capital shift towards Asia, excluding China. This trend, fuelled by tech interest and regional opportunities, is set to continue, with China's deal activity and upcoming exits adding to the momentum.
