TVP invests in FMR to tap into Japanese clientele

Local financial advisory Trust Venture Partners (TVP) will make a minority investment into business information firm Frontier Myanmar Research (FMR).

TVP will exclusively distribute FMR’s subscription services on energy, financial services, real estate and transport infrastructure to Japanese clients, for whom TVP acts as a market entry point into Myanmar.

The two companies will also combine FMR’s research insights and TVP’s advisory services to support foreign and local investors in Myanmar, as well as local companies looking to raise funds. By integrating expertise and resources, the partners will offer a single solution for market research, financial advisory, fund raising and due diligence.

The partners also hope to leverage TVP’s expertise in financial advisory and FMR’s coverage through its Myanmar Financial Services Monitor and tap into the growing market demand.

TVP chief executive officer Shinsuke Goto said “Once Myanmar’s financial market gains more momentum, the demand for related financial services such as corporate analysis reports will increase.

“Investors will require much more sophisticated information than is currently provided. Small and medium sized firms will not have the capacity to undertake this in-house,” he added.

Alex Warren, CEO of Frontier MEA, FMR’s UK-based parent company, expected the partnership to increase the reach and range of its business research services.
