Gibson Dunn Advised East Ventures On Landmark GP-Led Secondary Transaction
Gibson Dunn has advised East Ventures on the successful closing of its inaugural GP-led secondary transaction, facilitated by global secondary firm Coller Capital.
East Ventures, a trailblazing venture capital firm in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, provided liquidity to limited partners in its East Ventures 5 L.P. (EV5) fund. The transaction brought the total Distributions-to-Paid-In Capital (DPI) of EV5 to approximately 2.0x, highlighting its strong performance as a Top-Quartile Fund. Originally established to support seed and early-stage investments in Southeast Asian technology companies, EV5 continues to demonstrate its exceptional returns. Coller Capital fully underwrote the transaction, underscoring the fund’s robust appeal.
The Gibson Dunn team advising on the transaction was led by Partner John Fadely from the firm’s Singapore investment funds practice, supported by Associates Xuanyi Liu and Zan W. Of Counsel Marcus Tan provided guidance on corporate and Singapore law matters.
