The EXS Capital Group is an independent investment firm dedicated to Asia Pacific.
and is active throughout the region.
We focus exclusively on privately-negotiated investments in Asia, seeking either majority or shared control. We invest opportunistically across industries, including real estate, one of the biggest publicly listed businesses in the region. In Asia, we believe the distinction among traditional alternative investment styles – buyout, growth, distressed, mezzanine, PIPEs, activist, real estate opportunity, etc. – is relatively meaningless. Indeed, many of our most successful deals have combined elements of several of these styles. We make the investment suit the opportunity.
Since inception in 2007, EXS Capital has led over US$650 million in alternative investments in Asia, representing over US$1 billion in enterprise value. EXS originated, structured and executed these investments on a deal-by-deal basis, partnering with leading global private equity firms, hedge funds and international investment banks for funding.
Over the past twenty years, the principals of EXS have helped create and grow several of Asia's leading companies across industries including consumer, manufacturing, technology, telecommunication and real estate. As such, we have a long track record of generating wealth for both entrepreneurs and investors.
A clear and sustainable competitive advantage; for example, asset base, location, brand, franchise, license, etc.
Asia is particularly prone to monopolies, oligopolies and other situations of long-term competitive advantage. We have repeatedly demonstrated the ability to not only identify these business situations, but also to provide the necessary capital and other resources to outstanding management teams to develop opportunities that become obvious to others only in retrospect.
There are many effective ways to build such businesses, and equally many techniques to achieve the control, alignment and investor protection necessary to maximize value. Often the best deals are the product of multiple investments, strategies and techniques working in combination towards such an overall goal.
We are therefore agnostic as to industry and geography, structure and instrument. We fit the investment to the opportunity; the key is the end result.
EXS offers investors high-quality, sizable, proprietary investment opportunities without the complications of a fund structure.
For investors, our direct investment model offers far greater transparency and control as well as flexibility in instrument, structuring, terms and duration.
For management, our model provides better alignment of interests and flexibility to fit your needs.
EXS will join the management team as strategic and capital partner.
The value proposition for management is simple: you will make far more money with our participation.
