A number of news sources (Reuters, Xinhua) are reporting that Apax Partners plans to open an office in Shanghai by the end of the year.

The Shanghai office would be the Private Equity firms first office in China.

According to Wikipedia, Apax Partners is "one of the oldest and largest private equity firms operating on an international basis, ranked the seventh largest private equity firm globally." They have nine offices now - in New York, London, Hong Kong, Mumbai, Tel-Aviv, Madrid, Stockholm, Milan and Munich.
