Notes to Editors:

Myanmar Investments International Limited ("MIL") is the first Myanmar-focused investment company to be admitted to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange. It was established in 2013 to act as a conduit for overseas investors to invest in businesses led by dynamic and visionary Myanmar entrepreneurs and foreign companies investing in the country. MIL is led by co-founders Aung Htun and Mike Dean, private equity professionals and entrepreneurs with a strong regional track record of investment and profitable exits in SE Asia.

MIL aims to identify investments with strong growth which if necessary can be "de-risked" through the introduction of experienced senior line-management, mentors and/or strategic partners sourced by its Founders. Key sectors are those experiencing acute supply vs. demand imbalances, such as consumer and other capacity-constrained sectors.

With its strong proprietary investment pipeline of deals, MIL provides investors with a highly disciplined and conservative investment process into one of the most promising growth opportunities of this era.

To date, MIL has invested in Apollo Towers, one of Myanmar's top telecom towers companies with 1,800 towers, and MFIL, a top 10 microfinance company.

Myanmar, a country of approximately 51.4 million people and roughly the size of France, has been isolated for much of the last 50 years. Once it was one of the more prosperous countries in Southeast Asia as it has an abundance of natural resources (oil, natural gas, arable land, tourist attractions and a long coastline), it is now one of the least developed countries in the world.

Following the general elections in Myanmar in November 2015 the National League for Democracy, led by Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, won an overwhelming majority of the seats and the new administration took power on 1 April 2016.

In October 2016 the United States government lifted all remaining sanctions against Myanmar and re-admitted the country into its preferred tariff system.
