Asia has become a magnet for private-equity firms, which have raised billions of dollars to invest in the region. Asian private equity attracted US$6.5 billion in 2004, the highest amount since 2001, according to Centre for Asia Private Equity Research Ltd. Japan held on to its position as the largest private equity market, taking up 76.6 percent of the year's investment, followed by China attracting $1.3bn and India at $1.1bn.
