Financial inclusion in Emerging Asia is increasingly moving towards long-term resilience and well-being — a key theme at the Asia Grassroots Forum 2026 in Jakarta 🇮🇩, where @Helicapsg joined investors, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and ecosystem leaders to explore how capital, technology, and collaboration can better support grassroots communities.
David Z Wang, Co-Founder and CEO of Helicap Securities, noted the Forum’s agenda closely aligns with Helicap’s work to strengthen engagement across the region to drive financial returns with meaningful inclusion. 🎯
At the roundtable, “Serving the Bottom Billion: Applying Technology to Unlock the Informal Economy,” Meeta Misra, Chief Sustainability Officer, Helicap Group, shared how technology, responsible capital, and partnerships can support more inclusive financial systems.
A standout from the Forum: the launch of the Indonesian Coalition for Financial Health (ICFH), created to help turn resilience and financial well-being into action for underserved communities.
Thank you Amartha Financial, International Finance Cooperation, Accion, and Women’s World Banking for a forum that moved the conversation forward. 🙌

How do experienced investors think about long-term capital allocation as the global environment continues to evolve? 🌏
In a conversation with David Z. Wang, Co-Founder and CEO of Helicap Securities, Jeffrey Jaensubhakij, Advisor and former Group CIO at GIC, shared candid reflections shaped by nearly three decades of experience across asset classes, regions, and market cycles.
The discussion spanned the impact of policy decisions over time, geopolitical shifts and capital flows, AI adoption and questions around long-term economics, and the importance of underwriting quality, disciplined capital deployment, and liquidity alignment in private credit.
These insights were drawn from @Helicap’s recent event, Disciplined Private Credit: An Evening on Global Risk & Resilience — which we were honoured to have hosted.
To those who joined us, thank you for being part of the evening and for contributing to a meaningful exchange. 🙌
For those who could not make it, we are pleased to share the full insights from the session with our broader community.

The planet does not argue. It sends signals 🌍
Rising temperatures, extreme weather, water scarcity, and shifting ecosystems are no longer distant warnings. They are operating realities for businesses, investors, and economies.
The question is no longer whether to act. It is how capital gets allocated.
According to @wef, emerging markets need $2.4T in annual climate finance by 2030, including $1T from private international sources.
Emerging Asia is a key region. A May 2026 report by the Centre for Impact Investing and Practices, with Temasek, @invescoindia, and CGIAR Hub for Sustainable Finance (ImpactSF), maps 250+ priority climate adaptation and resilience solutions across the region.
This is where private credit has a targeted role to play.
At @Helicapsg, we see this as part of a larger shift: financing businesses that are building for the long term, supporting sustainable growth, and contributing to more resilient economies across emerging Asia.
That means deploying capital with rigour, through structured financing, disciplined underwriting, and deep market understanding.
This year’s theme, “Now for Climate,” reflects what finance practitioners are beginning to recognise: ambition alone does not move capital. Execution does.
How are you seeing capital deployed against climate adaptation challenges in your markets?

Enduring companies need more than momentum. They need discipline.
In @Helicapsg’s first Beyond the Balance Sheet feature for 2026, Georg Steiger, Co-founder and CEO of Billease, joins Cheryl Tay of Helicap Securities to discuss Billease’s evolution, portfolio discipline, and building for the long haul.
From a founding hypothesis around an underserved market to a company that continues to expand its role in consumer finance in the Philippines 🇵🇭, Georg’s journey reflects a decade of patient building around a clear purpose.
Behind Billease’s growth is a story of discipline, timing, and conviction.

The question in private credit is no longer whether sustainability matters. It’s how to embed it well, measure it credibly, and understand what it means for capital allocation going forward.
On 10 June, Meeta Misra (Chief Sustainability Officer, Helicap Group) and Cheryl Tay (Director, Sales & Partnerships, Helicap Securities), will discuss what the next chapter of impact investing looks like across Emerging Asia, from the USD 5.7T MSME credit gap and maturing ESG standards to institutional capital flows, sustainable bonds, and the role of private credit in financing impact.

Great energy, great run. Proud to finish 51st out of 400 teams🚀

At @Helicap, diversification is operationalized through broad exposure across geographies, lending segments, and strategies, underpinned by data-driven analysis and disciplined portfolio monitoring.
That is the standard Helicap strives to uphold.
Diversification is a dynamic process.
Research shows that the relationships between asset classes are complex and shift with market conditions (Tsioutsios, Yarovaya & Dimitriou, 2025), which is why a dynamic, evolving approach to portfolio construction matters.
