General Enterprise Management Services International Limited (GEMS) is a private equity fund management group that manages the GEMS Funds (GEMS I, II and III) and the Asia Resources Fund - these in turn make direct investments in the Asia Pacific region. Funds under management in these three Funds total over US$850 million, representing capital commitments from corporate clients, prominent family offices and select individual investors from around the world.  

 
GEMS was founded in 1998 by Simon Murray as an independent investment company whose sole business is the management of private equity funds. This focus, coupled with the team's extensive regional and international network and their understanding and insight of Asia, has set GEMS apart from the many multi-purpose financial institutions that run private equity funds as part of their asset management portfolio.

The importance GEMS places on people has resulted in long-term relationships that provide outstanding returns to our investors. GEMS leverages its comprehensive network of contacts through the Funds’ Board and Advisory Council, its own Management Team and an investor base that includes private investors and major multinational institutions such as AIG, GE Capital, Spectrum Value Management, Hutchison Whampoa, Dubai Investment Authority, Japan Tobacco, Mitsui, Mitsubishi, Richemont and others. The results are access to steady high quality deal flow; a broad perspective in assessing opportunities as well as valuable contacts and support to portfolio companies. These resources have enabled GEMS to identify and pursue investment opportunities that are often proprietary and difficult to access.
