Welcome to the 4th Annual Emerging Markets Private Equity Forum, co-hosted by PEI and EMPEA.
As a reflection on the recent success story of the world’s emerging markets, EMPEA’s 2008 LP Survey found that 74 percent of those surveyed expected greater commitments to emerging markets over the next three to five years.
The marquee event for emerging markets private equity, this year’s forum will tackle the most important issues facing the industry and offer excellent insights through its roster of leading industry speakers. We have secured a line up that ensures global coverage combined with ‘on-the-ground’ experience to demonstrate an accurate picture of actual market conditions and new opportunities for funds.
Key themes for this year include:
• Macroeconomic trends in global emerging markets
• Opportunities offered to LPs and GPs by emerging markets
• Has the credit crisis had an impact?
• The influence of sovereign wealth funds
• ESG – can you afford not to sign up?
The industry cannot afford to rest on its laurels and nor can we – for 2008 we have devised a number of new features to improve delegates’ experience at the event and ensure maximum value from attending.

New features include:
• The Big Debate
• The Big Interview
• Regional networking lunch
Also featured amongst our keynotes, panels and workshops is a selection of regional roundtables giving delegates the chance to focus on the granular issues facing private equity in a local context, including:
• China
• Latin America
• Middle East
• Turkey
• India
• North Africa
