PRIVATE equity (PE) deals in the Asia-Pacific market have set new records in 2015 despite the turbulent global economy, an annual report by Bain & Company showed on Friday.
Deal value spiked 44 per cent last year to an all-time record of US$125 billion - twice the five-year average - with Greater China (China, Hong Kong and Taiwan) accounting for about half of the region's total, growing 56 per cent to US$69 billion.
