The company’s particular focus is on middle market companies which are often ignored by many financial institutions.
WorldVest has announced that it has expanded its Asian business division to pursue unique and exciting investments and banking transactions throughout the Asia region, with a focus on China and South Korea. To oversee development in this rapidly growing market, the company announced that Matthew Chung has joined the team as its senior managing director of Asia.
