HKIC leads its first overseas delegation to Malaysia and Brunei

The Hong Kong Investment Corporation, which manages HK$62 billion government funds, visited the institutional investors in Malaysia and Brunei together with more than 10 enterprises from July 28 to August 1.

The delegation met with senior executives from more than 40 patient capital institutions, private equity firms, industry partners, government bodies, financial and academic institutions for in-depth exchanges, including Khazanah Nasional Berhad, Employees Provident Fund, Permodalan Nasional Berhad and Brunei Investment Agency.

The Southeast Asian representatives expressed keen interest and showed pressing demand for investing in enterprises in the HKIC’s ecosystem, said the chief executive Clara Chan Ka-chai.

The visits achieved two major purposes, said HKIC, including broadening potential sources and choices of investors for our enterprises and facilitating mutual understanding.

Total assets under management of the attending institutions from Malaysia and Brunei were over HK$4 trillion, according to HKIC.
