- EQT Nexus Asia provides eligible individual and institutional investors access to EQT Private Capital’s Asia Pacific platform through a single evergreen strategy
- Asia accounts for approximately 60% of the world’s population and 60% of global economic growth, yet receives less than 5% of global private equity allocations, creating attractive entry points for the region’s expanding buyout market
- EQT is well-positioned to capture Asia’s structural tailwinds, building on a 30-year track record of investing in the region, and a dedicated team of over 150 investment professionals based across nine local offices
HONG KONG, Sept. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — EQT today announced the launch of EQT Nexus Asia, an evergreen strategy aiming to provide eligible individual investors and institutions access to EQT Private Capital’s Asia Pacific platform. EQT Nexus Asia will allocate across EQT Private Capital’s closed-ended large-cap and mid-market strategies targeting companies within healthcare, services, technology and industrial technology in India, Korea, Japan, Greater China, Southeast Asia and ANZ.
Asia Pacific is home to around 60% of the world’s population and a USD 35 trillion economy growing at over 4% per year. By 2035, the region is expected to account for 3.2 billion of the world’s five billion middle-class consumers, providing a strong foundation for economic growth. Yet despite representing around 60% of global economic growth, Asia receives less than 5% of global private equity capital.
Asia Pacific has a large universe of companies with potential to scale in growth and operational maturity, offering significant opportunities for active ownership and value creation. Supported by increasingly domestically driven growth, lower correlation with Western economic cycles, and robust IPO markets, the region provides a favorable backdrop for long-term private equity investing.
EQT is well-positioned to capture these opportunities, building on a long track record of supporting Asian companies through multiple cycles and having invested approximately USD 50 billion across the region since 1997. Today, EQT’s Asian portfolio employs more than 270,000 people, supported by a team of over 150 investment professionals and nine regional offices.
Sueann Yeo, Head of Global Wealth Solutions, Asia Pacific, at EQT, said: “EQT Nexus Asia is designed to provide eligible individual investors and institutions access to Asia’s evolving private markets landscape. Through a single evergreen strategy, investors can gain diversified exposure to EQT Private Capital’s Asia platform across sectors and strategies, backed by EQT’s long-standing local footprint and proven track record of building strong companies across the region.”
Hari Gopalakrishnan, Co-Head of EQT Private Capital Asia, said: “Asia stands out as one of the world’s most attractive regions for long-term investment, underpinned by large domestic economies, favourable demographics and strong structural tailwinds. EQT has a deep bench of experienced professionals who have invested together through multiple cycles. That long-term tenure, combined with EQT’s global sector expertise and active ownership capabilities, allows us to take a disciplined approach to identifying opportunities and building stronger businesses over time.”
Nicholas Macksey, Co-Head of EQT Private Capital Asia and Head of Mid-Market Asia, said: “The mid-market is an important part of the opportunity set we see across Asia, with many businesses reaching an inflection point as they look to scale, enter new markets or strengthen their capabilities. Our active ownership approach means working closely with high-quality companies, founders and management teams on that next phase of growth, bringing the same sector expertise, governance and value creation capabilities that we apply across our broader Private Capital platform.”
