Sun Hung Kai & Co. Deepens Partnership with Wentworth, Seeding New Australian Real Estate Private Credit Platform
Sun Hung Kai & Co. Ltd. (“SHK & Co”, SEHK: 86), a leading alternative investment platform headquartered in Hong Kong, is pleased to announce a further strategic investment in Australian real estate private equity firm Wentworth. This commitment will seed Wentworth’s newly launched private credit platform, Wentworth Private Credit (“WPC”).This investment builds on SHK & Co.’s initial stake in Wentworth early this year (for details please refer to the announcement made in January 2025), deepening the strategic partnership between the two firms. WPC, a dedicated real estate private credit platform for Australia and New Zealand, will be led by industry veteran Issa Chehab. Mr. Chehab brings over 25 years of sector experience, including a decade leading Blackstone's Australian real estate credit business.The platform unites Wentworth’s deep local real estate expertise with a specialist credit investment team, enabling WPC to provide a differentiated private credit offering. It will focus on underserved segments of the market, such as assets requiring repositioning or value-add strategies, where Wentworth’s operational expertise can be applied through structured debt solutions.Mr. Chehab said: "There is a real and genuine demand in the Australian market for a trusted, local provider who has the right governance structures in place and is able to move quickly. The opportunity set we have identified is in the mid-market where the gap is too small for mega funds, but the assets and capital structures are more complex and require sophisticated expertise and solutions.”WPC is supported by a significant and scalable seed commitment from SHK & Co., via its funds management subsidiary Sun Hung Kai Capital Partners ("SHKCP").

The launch marks a major expansion for Wentworth, mirroring its institutional equity approach in the credit space and addressing the growing opportunity for private credit in the Australian market.Seng Huang Lee, Group Executive Chairman of SHK & Co. commented: "We are proud to be part of seeding Wentworth’s new fund, supporting their growth while strategically positioning ourselves in the high-potential Australian real estate private credit market. Our confidence lies in the strong leadership of Issa and the expertise of the entire Wentworth team.
