HONG KONG : Buyout funds are set to extend a record spending spree in Asia to the rest of the year but they will be mostly seeking deals outside China, where concerns about the economy are likely to outweigh any easing of a regulatory crackdown, dealmakers said.

The record buyout deal value, however, suggested that some APAC-focused funds may be reallocating more of their dry powder away from China and redirecting their investment activities to other parts of the region, he said.

China's central leadership has given Ant Group a tentative green light to revive its IPO, Reuters reported last week.
