JOHOR BAHRU, June 9 (Bernama) -- Venture capital company Asia Vision Capital Sdn Bhd (AVC) has teamed up with JYSigma Business Consultancy (JBC) to enhance investor engagement for its private equity real estate funds in the region.
The partnership aimed to broaden AVC’s investor outreach throughout Southeast Asia and increase access to the Quayside JBCC development in Johor Bahru, strategically located near the Johor–Singapore corridor.
In a statement today, AVC’s chief investment officer, Ian Khor, said the collaboration reflects the company’s commitment to delivering institutional-quality real estate investments in Malaysia.
JBC, which has a strong presence in Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, Dubai, and Malaysia, will support AVC by providing local market insights, outreach assistance, and execution capabilities across key regional markets.
The partnership will enhance investor access to AVC’s two regulated funds: QJBCCA PLT, a conventional fund, and QJBCCI PLT, a Shariah-compliant fund. Both funds offer accredited investors exposure to the Quayside JBCC development in the Johor–Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ).
Quayside JBCC development features serviced residences, retail outlets, a rooftop restaurant, and a hotel managed by internationally recognised brands. It generates revenue from hospitality, retail, dining, parking, and advertising.
The development has garnered notable accolades, including Best Designed Development (Malaysia) at the 2024 PropertyGuru Asia Awards, along with honours from OPAL 2023, Asia Pacific Property Awards, ASEAN Developer Awards, StarProperty, and KSI Awards.
The Quayside JBCC development is scheduled to begin operations by 2027/2028, with a potential real estate investment trust (REIT) listing planned by 2032.
To deepen its involvement, JBC has established a dedicated office in Johor Bahru, underscoring its commitment to the partnership.
JBC director Jack Yang said the collaboration marked an important step into high-impact, Shariah-compliant real estate investments, a sector he views as crucial for Southeast Asia’s capital markets.
“We see this area as increasingly important for capital deployment in Southeast Asia,” he added.
AVC is currently targeting up to RM300 million in fund commitments during its ongoing fundraising phase.
It added that the company remains focused on delivering long-term, income-generating investments that align with both conventional and Shariah-compliant principles, providing investors with access to one of Southeast Asia’s most promising real estate corridors.
