| Description |
ADM Maculus Fund II L.P (the Fund) is a successor of ADM Maculus Fund I, following the same investment philosophy and objectives. The establishment of the Fund follows the rapid deployment of capital of ADM Maculus I and its successful performance to date. The Fund will build upon the successes of the first fund and its strategy. The Fund, through its investment in portfolio companies, will assist in restructuring potentially viable companies that are financially distressed because of excessive debt and/or inappropriate capital and financial structure. |
| Objectives and Scope |
The key objectives of the Fund are to (i) mobilize foreign capital inflows to financially troubled but potentially viable companies throughout Asia; (ii) catalyze the financial restructuring and rehabilitation of these companies; and (iii) achieve a demonstration effect, as Maculus II's transactions will have a multiplier effect by creating replicable (best practice) restructuring models for Asia's emerging markets. |
| Linkage to Country/Regional Strategy |
Investing in the Fund is consistent with ADB's strategy of promoting (i)poverty reduction through job preservation and creation; (ii) private sector development; and (iii) country strategies addressing issues such as introducing best practices in corporate governance, banking reform, NPL resolution, and infrastructure preservation and development. |
