Chinese state-backed funds are cutting off new investment in US private equity, according to several people familiar with the situation, in the latest salvo against President Donald Trump’s trade war.
State-backed funds have been pulling back from investing in the funds of US-headquartered private capital firms in recent weeks, according to seven private equity executives with knowledge of the matter. The moves come in response to pressure from the Chinese government, three of the people said. Some of the Chinese funds are also seeking to be excluded from private equity investments in US companies, even if those investments are made by buyout groups based elsewhere, some of the executives added. The change in approach to the US comes as China has borne the brunt of US tariffs announced in the past three weeks that threaten to significantly curtail trade between the world’s two biggest economies.
