PHNOM PENH, Cambodia — Investors started poking around for deals here five years ago, as the war-torn country began to move past its legacy of genocide and coups. When the global financial crisis struck, Cambodia’s fast-growing economy crashed and the dollars flowing from abroad evaporated.
Douglas Clayton stayed put. In the midst of the
crisis, he raised $34 million, starting the first investment fund
focused on Cambodia.
“High risk also means the potential for high returns,” said Mr. Clayton, the founder of Leopard Capital.
