<div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Dissecting the relative strengths and weaknesses of education in Asia is as complex and diverse as the region itself. Perhaps not surprisingly, the more developed markets of Asia including Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong and Singapore, ranked well. Less developed markets like Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines, still struggle. </span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">When it comes to public education, quality is oftentimes directly proportional to the level of government spending. Building schools and staffing them with well-versed teachers takes time and money. It’s for that very reason that large-scale private equity firms are entering the space. </span><a href="https://www.bpeasia.com/" target="_blank" style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(54, 97, 189); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: underline;">Baring</a><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">, </span><a href="https://www.blackstone.com/" target="_blank" style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(54, 97, 189); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: underline;">Blackstone</a><span style="font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">and </span><a href="https://www.kkr.com/" target="_blank" style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(54, 97, 189); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: underline;">KKR</a><span style="font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">are just a few of the many major investors increasing their holdings in education companies worldwide.

<span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">In financial terms, education is like healthcare. Asians who can afford it will spend an increasing proportion of their income on educating their children. The stories of Asian students and their record-breaking test scores are the thing of legend, which </span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: italic;">might</span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">suggest that schools in Asia are that much better than those elsewhere. </span>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">But that’s not necessarily the case. Indeed, throughout much of the region, it’s the supplementary after-school services that oftentimes give Asian students that edge. Whether its higher-math training, violin lessons or preparatory testing, there’s an ecosystem of for-profit services that feed the education beast. It’s a multi-billion dollar industry and its only just getting started.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Core curriculum, however, and the school systems that form the basis are not keeping up. This is where for-profit schools like </span><a href="https://www.nordangliaeducation.com/" target="_blank" style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(54, 97, 189); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: underline;">Nord-Anglia</a><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">, </span><a href="https://www.cognita.com/" target="_blank" style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(54, 97, 189); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: underline;">Cognita</a><span style="font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">and </span><a href="https://www.gemseducation.com/" target="_blank" style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(54, 97, 189); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: underline;">GEMS</a><span style="font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">are stepping in, acquiring, and in some case, building new schools in markets that can afford them. It’s a cash-flow intensive business, and as Brian points out, capture a student in K1 and if all goes well, you can look forward to 12 years of recurring revenue. The return on investment or ROI for players with capital to invest, is significant and long-term.</span>

<div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">The ROI for students, however, is increasingly coming into question. What do I mean by this? Well, if you consider Brian’s logic, parents might justify enrollment of their child in a top-ranked school if they can determine the so-called lifetime value of that child’s future earnings. I don’t know about you, but If my parents had done this when I was a kid, I wonder if I’d be a disappointment to them today. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">But seriously, there’s a bigger question at stake and it speaks to the nature of a traditional education and whether schools are effectively equipping students for the future. Scores on standardized tests are still the litmus test for admission to Universities. Teachers – some of whom may not yet know about the Internet– are still testing for rote memorization. And parents…ah, yes, parents….they’re the biggest culprits of all. Make no mistake, for them, education </span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: italic;">is</span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">an investment. And making money…well…that’s the measure of success. Isn’t it?</span>
</div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">That may sound crass to the Western ear, but in Asia, where we’re just one generation removed from poverty and underdevelopment, money </span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-style: italic; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">is</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">the measure. An education program that can improve the odds is – in no uncertain terms - worth the investment.</span>
</div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">If you think about it, is investment in education really any different from the purchase of a home or a stock portfolio? Get past the </span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-style: italic; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">dis</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">-ease associated with the idea, and it kind of makes sense.</span>
</div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Of course, this all assumes that the system, as we know, remains true to its historical trend. Will your home hold its value? Not if the bubble bursts. The same goes for education. What if – in the not-too-distant future – education is commoditized and advances in EdTech provide students with access to the same curriculum at a fraction of the cost. Then what? </span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">What if there’s a backlash and rather than schools freeing a child’s mind, they’re suddenly called out for controlling or even limiting a student’s potential. Its’ possible. Stranger things have happened. Technology is disrupting industries everywhere and education is no exception.</span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">But traditions are hard things to break. Parents who had the opportunity to attend University – and even those who didn’t - see major brand equity in a college degree. They want that for their children, and why wouldn’t they, they’re parents after all.</span></div>
