French alternatives firm Tikehau Capital has opened an office in Hong Kong as part of a private credit initiative.
The asset manager has partnered with Hong Kong-based Flow Capital, a private credit firm focused on Asia Pacific real estate debt investment, for the project.
Under the terms of the deal, the two firms will “explore co-investment opportunities” relying on Tikehau’s institutional relationships and Flow Capital’s local networks with an emphasis on investors in Greater China.
The new Hong Kong office is Tikehau’s fourth in Asia, adding to its Singapore, Seoul and Tokyo offices.
Tikehau has also forged similar partnerships across Asia in recent months. In December, it linked up with Union Overseas Bank in Singapore, and in December, it partnered with Nikko Asset Management in Japan.
Both alliances are focused on private credit, highlighting the global interest in the asset class.
