Filed in archive Private Equity by Greg Cruey on October 27, 2008
TRENDSnIFF reported Friday that UK private equity inverstor Actis is leading an investment push into two China companies: 7 Days Inn and Ambow Education.

Other investors involved in the two deals include Warburg Pincus. Actis and Warburg Pincus announced a US$65 million investment in China's 7 Days Inn Group earlier this month. Actis joins Warburg Pincus, Merrill Lynch, and Deutsche Bank as stake holders in Shenzhen-based 7 Days Inn. The company is the 5th biggest budget hotel chain in China.

Actis also joined existing investors Avenue and Macquarie Group in having a stake in Ambow Education. That investment deal totaled $103 million for the Beijing-based education company. In October 2007, Ambow raised $54 million venture capital from Avenue, CID Capital, Cisco Systems and Macquarie Group.
