Can Asia Pacific make a breakthrough?
The region has been characterized by modest overall fundraising totals boosted by occasional mega-funds, but there is hope that this year may be different.
Looking at fundraising data for the Asia-Pacific region over the last four-and-a-half years does not appear to provide much encouragement: 2015 saw almost $8.5 billion raised, but 2014, 2016 and 2018 (year to date) have not seen half that amount raised.
