Private equity deals in Asia plunged 44% in 2022. More uncertainty may be ahead

Asia-Pacific's private equity market plummeted last year -- as investors' appetite for risk fell in the face of inflation and geopolitical tensions, according to Bain & Company.

The total deal value for the region plunged by 44% to $198 billion in 2022, the global management and consulting firm said in a Tuesday report. That's compared to $354 billion in 2021, the analysts said adding that nearly 70% of surveyed fund managers expect the negative trend to continue into 2024.

Lingering macroeconomic uncertainties alongside rising costs and worsening company performance that dampened investor sentiment, Bain said in its Asia Pacific Private Equity Report 2023.
