 Permira has appointed Henry L Chen as head of Greater China. He will be responsible for running the firm's new Hong Kong office and for developing Permira's activities in the region.
Chen joins Permira from Goldman Sachs, where he most recently served as co-head of the General Industrials Group for Asia, excluding Japan. Before that, he was COO of Corporate Finance.
Guido Paolo Gamucci, chairman of Asia Pacific for Permira, said, 'We are delighted to welcome Henry Chen as head of our newly opened Hong Kong office. Henry's outstanding transaction track record, leadership experience and unparalleled contacts in the region will be invaluable to the firm as we continue to build an international platform for growth. His sector expertise, particularly in consumer retail, industrials and healthcare, are perfectly aligned with Permira's core areas of expertise and we look forward to working together on developing our franchise further in Asia.'
Permira advises funds with a total committed capital of approximately €22bn.
The firm opened its Hong Kong office in June of this year. It also has an office in Tokyo, which opened in 2005.
