Hamilton Lane appoints Asia investment heads
Hamilton Lane has named Mingchen Xia (pictured) and Collwyn Tan as co-heads of the firm’s investment business in Asia. They already cover fund investments and co-investments, respectively, in the region.
Xia joined Hamilton Lane in 2014 from Tokio Marine Asset Management in Japan, where he was a senior fund manager and responsible for commitments to private equity funds globally. Before that, he worked at Mitsubishi UFJ Securities and Mizuho Securities. Tan has been with Hamilton Lane since 2011. He was previously an associate at China Renaissance Capital Investment (CRCI).
"Mingchen and Collwyn have been vital to the expansion of Hamilton Lane's Asia business. As the Asia Pacific region continues to grow in importance within the private markets, we believe we are well-positioned to take advantage of opportunities there under their able leadership," said Juan Delgado-Moreira, vice chairman and overall head of Asia at Hamilton Lane, in a statement.
As of September, Hamilton Lane had $66 billion in discretionary assets under management and advisory relationships covering a further $415 billion in assets. Its investment and advisory activities cover primary fund commitments, secondaries, co-investment, private credit, and real assets. The firm has 16 offices globally, including bases in Hong Kong, Seoul, Sydney, and Tokyo.
