CDB Capital to launch $9 bln PE
The fund of funds, the first of its kind set up by a state-owned entity, would include 40 billion yuan for private equity and 20 billion yuan for venture capital, they said.
CBD Capital was in the process of bringing in the national pension fund and some state-owned insurers as initial investors, executives said.
The yuan-denominated fund, which aims to raise an initial 15 billion yuan this year, will be closed by the end of 2011.
CDB Capital has partnered with Suzhou Industrial Park, originally a venture between Singapore and the southern city of Suzhou, to establish the fund, which will have a 12-year lifespan.
