JIF Capital

JIF Capital is an independent, multi-strategy Asian investment platform that focuses on venture and growth investments. The firm supports high-growth companies from early to growth stages, primarily in technology-driven sectors. Its investment focus includes DeepTech, Networking & Cybersecurity, Fin-Tech, Consumer & Services, BioTech & Healthcare, Renewable & Clean Energy, Artificial Intelligence, Enterprise Software, and Digital Platforms. JIF Capital operates with a pan-Asian perspective, with investment teams spread across Southeast Asia, China, India, and Taiwan.

Established in 1990 as JAFCO Asia, the firm recently rebranded as JIF Capital Ltd. following its acquisition by Bee Alternatives Management. This transition marks its formal evolution into an independent venture and growth investment platform. The firm maintains its headquarters in Singapore and continues to operate with the same investment philosophy and governance standards that have guided it for over three decades.

JIF Capital manages approximately US$500 million in assets, with a cumulative investment history of around US$1.9 billion. The firm has a significant track record, having backed over 480 companies across Asia Pacific and completed more than 400 divestments, including over 110 public listings through IPOs, M&A, and trade sales. Notable portfolio activity includes supporting AnyMind Group's listing on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 2023. More recently, JIF Capital led a $4 million Series A funding round for LetzRyd, a mobility fleet platform.

The leadership team at JIF Capital includes Chief Executive Officer Carmen Yuen, formerly a General Partner at Vertex Ventures Southeast Asia and India, and Managing Partner Koichi Saito, previously of KK Fund. The regional executive bench is deep, with Managing Directors Swee Ting Pan leading China operations, Edward Lee overseeing Taipei investments, and Supriya Singh heading investments for Southeast Asia and India. The team is committed to partnering closely with founders and management, leveraging extensive market knowledge and robust regional and international networks, including long-standing relationships with Japanese and Taiwanese Limited Partners.
