Singapore VC fund manager among world's top performers

Singapore

SINGAPORE-based East Ventures is among five firms named as the most consistently top-performing venture capital (VC) fund managers in the world by alternatives data source Preqin.

All five had three out of three venture capital funds in the top quartile for returns as at the third quarter of 2018, said Preqin in its latest quarterly ranking. East Ventures thus tied at the top with Silicon Valley powerhouse Benchmark Capital, a backer of eBay and Twitter; Hong Kong's Click Ventures; and US-based fund managers G Squared and Merus Capital.
