The Fourth China Private Equity Summit

This is a good time for the private equity community in Hong Kong. Exits are generating returns, new opportunities are emerging in China, new funds are being raised. But it isn't all milk and honey. Today's successes may raise unrealistic expectations about the future. New opportunities may turn out to be mirages. And the regulatory environment on the mainland remains as fast-changing as ever.

We will address all these, and other, issues in our marquee event, the China Private Equity Summit. Private equity practitioners, legal experts, tax specialists, and industry speakers will separate the fluff from what's important: Attractive new sectors. New structuring and technical issues. Case studies.
