"While the overall investment environment

remains challenging and the effects of 2008's turbulence are

still being felt, 2009 will be a year of unique opportunity for

private equity, venture capital and M&As in China."

China's economy continues to grow, powered largely by

successful small and medium private businesses, many of which are among the fastestgrowing

companies in the world. Private equity and venture capital investment in China will likely reach

record levels in 2009, the report projects, with over $1bn in new investment into high growth

Chinese SMEs with strong focus on China's booming domestic market.

"In 2009, China should rightly be among the most attractive and active private equity investment

markets in the world," the China First Capital report predicts. "Many of the international private

equity firms we work with are expecting to invest more in Chinese SMEs in 2009 than in 2008.

Chinese companies raising capital this year will enjoy significant financial advantages over

competitors, improving market share and profitability."

China Consumer-Focused Funds Successfully Raised Significant Sums in 2008

To date, eight investments have been made from AEM3: a $50m investment for a majority stake in Beijing-based hot pot chain Xiabu Xiabu; a $103m investment, as part of a consortium, in Chinese company Ambow Education; a $65m investment, again as part of a consortium, in Chinese company 7 Days Inn Group;

Paul Fletcher, senior partner, Actis, said, 'We are delighted to have assembled such an outstanding group of investors who continue to recognise the opportunities for private equity investment across the emerging markets, despite the current economic climate.‘We believe that underlying economic growth remains resilient in many of the emerging markets. Much of this growth can be linked to businesses benefiting from consumer demand and increased investment in domestic infrastructure and Actis's investment strategy is tailored accordingly.

“Top Dealmaker from Sequoia Capital” Mar 2009

“expects more China deals in 2009 for its growth fund as valuations become more reasonable during the current downturn. More than one third of its two China funds -- Sequoia Capital China II and Sequoia

China Growth I, both launched in May 2007 -- have been invested, Neil Shen, Sequoia Capital China founding partner, told the Reuters Private Equity and Hedge Funds Summit. Its first $250 million (171.5 million pounds) China fund launched in 2005 was fully invested before Sequoia Capital China launched the other two funds in 2007. Currently, Sequoia Capital China has about 50 portfolio companies, said Shen."I think things will be better in the next 12 months and I do believe valuation is getting more and more reasonable so probably the next 12 months should be a very interesting period for us to find growth opportunities," Shen told the Reuters Summit.He also noted that Sequoia Capital China will focus on consumer-driven sectors this year share in the growth of domestic consumption with Beijing's policy support
