MID MARKET FOCUS

Emerging companies typically are more entrepreneurial and have higher growth potential, and lend themselves better to value added by improvement in basic management practices or strategic focus compared to their larger counterparts. The mid market sector is also relatively underserved, overlooked, and more target-rich, with better value creation and return potential. With the right financial partner and capital support, Asian companies in the post-1997 crisis period are well-positioned to be stronger and more competitive than ever, and small and medium sized enterprises, representing 90% of the Asian market, even more so.
