Warburg Pincus is expanding its real estate investment capabilities in Asia-Pacific by appointing Gregory Wells as an ‘entrepreneur-in-residence’ to build the New York-based private equity firm’s real estate credit exposure in the region.
As part of its long-running so-called ‘EIR’ program, Warburg Pincus provides support and financial resources to executives or entrepreneurs globally, who are looking to build a platform focused on specific market opportunities, with the ultimate objective of becoming an investor in the platform itself.
