  • The Wild Card: Can Frontier Markets Equities Bounce Back? | Frontier Markets, Equities | Financeasia
    5/6/2020 The wild card: Can frontier markets equities bounce back? | frontier markets, equities | FinanceAsia Frontier markets The wild card: Can frontier markets equities bounce back? Frontier markets have been among the worst hit amid the coronavirus equities sell-off, but one veteran fund manager believes they have rarely offered better value. By Jackie Horne April 28, 2020 The coronavirus spared many frontier markets from the same infection rates suffered by Western countries, but not their stock markets. In Vietnam, for example, the VN Index fell 26.1% in dollar terms during March, outpacing US benchmark indices such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average, which dropped by 13.74% over the same period. Frontier markets are getting used to it after taking a pounding in recent years. International investors remain firmly focused on their homes markets in the US and Europe, or rapidly opening ones like China. In the following interview, Thomas Hugger, founder and CEO of fund manager Asia Frontier Capital, argues that there has never been a better time to reconsider some of Asia's smallest stock markets. He also wishes the MSCI would re-evaulate its methodologies for upgrading or downgrading countries between its emerging markets and frontier markets index. Hugger's Hong Kong-based group currently operates four funds with $45 million under management: its benchmark AFC Asia Frontier Fund, AFC Iraq Fund, AFC Uzbekistan Fund and AFC Fund. Q. What impact is the coronavirus having on frontier markets? A number of stock exchanges like Sri Lanka and Jordan closed completely. A. There’s a major difference between the stock exchange closures in the two countries.

  • Article Title
    International In-house Counsel Journal Vol. 5, No. 19, Spring 2012, 1 Legal Considerations for Investment in Cambodia JOSEPH M. LOVELL Group General Counsel and COO, Leopard Capital Ltd, Cambodia The Kingdom of Cambodia has come onto the radar of international investors as economic development has continued in the Kingdom providing opportunities for investment across a wide range of sectors. While numerous factors support the continuing expansion of international investment in Cambodia, the trend for international investment in Cambodia has been supported by the growth and maturation of the local legal system. However, while it continues to improve, the Cambodian legal system remains opaque and not fully formed and, therefore, reliable legal outcomes are not always guaranteed in local forums. It is, therefore, important for international investors in Cambodia to take note of a number of legal issues when planning a deployment of capital to the Kingdom. Over the last decade, Cambodia has posted strong economic growth rates. Based on a range of public sources, from 2004 to 2007, the economy grew about 10% on an annual basis, driven largely by growth in the garment sector, construction, agriculture, and tourism. GDP contracted slightly in 2009 under the impact of the global economic downturn, but bounced back to over 4% in 2010 despite continuing international economic uncertainties. 2011 GDP growth was approximately 6.5%. The government is forecasting 2012 GDP to be 7-8% year over year. In addition to the attraction of the expanding economy, investment in Cambodia is driven by its advantageous geographical positioning, stable government, trade integration, improving transport and communications infrastructure, and wealth of natural resources, including arable land and mineral deposits.

  • ILPA Private Equity Principles Endorsements (Updated: April, 2017)
    ILPA Private Equity Principles Endorsements (Updated: April, 2017) Historically, the private equity partnership structure has been effective in aligning the interests of investors (the “limited partners”) with those individuals managing the money (the “general partner”). By sharing a substantial portion of profits with the general partner and requiring the general partner to have a meaningful equity interest in their own funds, a business culture was created where most private equity firms were able to maintain a single-minded determination to maximize returns on the underlying investments. The principles contained herein are a means to restore and strengthen the basic “alignment of interests” value proposition in private equity. Certain terms and conditions that have gradually evolved should receive renewed attention in private equity partnership agreements entered into prospectively in order to (i) correctly align interests between general partners and limited partners, (ii) enhance fund governance and (iii) provide greater transparency to investors. A summary of private equity principles is provided below. Appendix A contains details on preferred private equity terms, and Appendix B contains best practices for Limited Partner Advisory Committees (“LPAC”). The concepts contained in these documents reflect suggested best practices and are intended to serve as a basis for continued discussion among and between the general partner and limited partner communities with the goal of improving the private equity industry for the long-term benefit of all its participants. These documents were developed through the efforts, contributions and collaboration of many institutional private equity investors and their senior investment officers, the Institutional Limited Partners Association (“ILPA”) and the Private Equity Principles and Best Practices Committee of the ILPA Board of Directors.
