Global alternative asset manager Tikehau Capital and Flow Capital, a private credit firm specialising in Asia Pacific real estate debt investment, have announced a new partnership.
At the same time, Tikehau Capital will open a new office in Hong Kong.
Under the partnership, Tikehau Capital and Flow Capital will explore co-investment opportunities by marrying Tikehau Capital’s institutional relationships with Flow Capital’s local networks, particularly among investors in greater China.
Tikehau’s new Hong Kong office will be its seventeenth globally and its fourth in Asia after Singapore, Seoul and Tokyo.
“We are delighted to embark on this partnership with Flow Capital. The Asia Pacific region offers tremendous potential and is a key priority on Tikehau Capital’s strategic growth roadmap. This new partnership and the opening of our first office in Hong Kong mark another exciting stage in our expansion into this vibrant region,” said Bruno de Pampelonne, executive chairman of Asia, and Jean-Baptiste Feat, co-head of Asia, at Tikehau Capital.
“We are thrilled to join forces with the globally renowned Tikehau Capital. This partnership not only validates the success of Flow Capital but also opens up new avenues of growth and opportunity outside Asia,” said Sam Lau, chairman of Flow Capital.
“Tikehau Capital’s institutional relationships, combined with our deep local networks, will enable us to unlock potential and widen our investment mandate as well as established connections on a global scale. Together, we are well-positioned to deliver exceptional results and create lasting value for our partners and investors.”
