◦ EQT Nexus Asia provides eligible individual and institutional investors access
   to EQT Private Capital’s Asia Pacific platform through a single evergreen strategy
 ◦ Asia accounts for approximately 60% of the world’s population and 60% of global
   economic growth, yet receives less than 5% of global private equity allocations,
   creating attractive entry points for the region’s expanding buyout market
 ◦ EQT is well-positioned to capture Asia’s structural tailwinds, building on a 
   30-year track record of investing in the region, and a dedicated team of over
   150 investment professionals based across nine local offices

HONG KONG, Sept. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — EQT today announced the launch of EQT Nexus
Asia, an evergreen strategy aiming to provide eligible individual investors and 
institutions access to EQT Private Capital’s Asia Pacific platform. EQT Nexus Asia
will allocate across EQT Private Capital’s closed-ended large-cap and mid-market
strategies targeting companies within healthcare, services, technology and industrial
technology in India, Korea, Japan, Greater China, Southeast Asia and ANZ. 

Asia Pacific is home to around 60% of the world’s population and a USD 35 trillion
economy growing at over 4% per year. By 2035, the region is expected to account 
for 3.2 billion of the world’s five billion middle-class consumers, providing a 
strong foundation for economic growth. Yet despite representing around 60% of global
economic growth, Asia receives less than 5% of global private equity capital. 

Asia Pacific has a large universe of companies with potential to scale in growth
and operational maturity, offering significant opportunities for active ownership
and value creation. Supported by increasingly domestically driven growth, lower 
correlation with Western economic cycles, and robust IPO markets, the region provides
a favorable backdrop for long-term private equity investing.

EQT is well-positioned to capture these opportunities, building on a long track 
record of supporting Asian companies through multiple cycles and having invested
approximately USD 50 billion across the region since 1997. Today, EQT’s Asian portfolio
employs more than 270,000 people, supported by a team of over 150 investment professionals
and nine regional offices.

Sueann Yeo, Head of Global Wealth Solutions, Asia Pacific, at EQT, said: "EQT Nexus
Asia is designed to provide eligible individual investors and institutions access
to Asia’s evolving private markets landscape. Through a single evergreen strategy,
investors can gain diversified exposure to EQT Private Capital’s Asia platform across
sectors and strategies, backed by EQT’s long-standing local footprint and proven
track record of building strong companies across the region."

Hari Gopalakrishnan, Co-Head of EQT Private Capital Asia, said: "Asia stands out
as one of the world’s most attractive regions for long-term investment, underpinned
by large domestic economies, favourable demographics and strong structural tailwinds.
EQT has a deep bench of experienced professionals who have invested together through
multiple cycles. That long-term tenure, combined with EQT’s global sector expertise
and active ownership capabilities, allows us to take a disciplined approach to identifying
opportunities and building stronger businesses over time."

Nicholas Macksey, Co-Head of EQT Private Capital Asia and Head of Mid-Market Asia,
said: "The mid-market is an important part of the opportunity set we see across 
Asia, with many businesses reaching an inflection point as they look to scale, enter
new markets or strengthen their capabilities. Our active ownership approach means
working closely with high-quality companies, founders and management teams on that
next phase of growth, bringing the same sector expertise, governance and value creation
capabilities that we apply across our broader Private Capital platform."
