Youngtimers Appoints Ben Cheng as New CEO Following C Capital Acquisition

Youngtimers has named Ben Cheng as its new Chief Executive Officer, succeeding Renger van den Heuvel. This move comes after the acquisition of C Capital Group, an investment firm led by Hong Kong billionaire Adrian Cheng. Ben Cheng will now steer the company’s strategic vision and lead its efforts to expand globally.

C Capital, known for its investments in high-growth companies across Asia, holds a diverse portfolio that includes names like Shein, NIO, XPeng, Lalamove, and CASETiFY. The acquisition also includes 100% ownership of Jakota Index Portfolios, a prominent index licensing and investment firm with a strong presence in the Japan, Korea, and Taiwan capital markets.

With the new leadership under Cheng, Youngtimers plans to broaden its reach beyond Greater China and the United States, targeting emerging markets in APAC, Europe, the Middle East, and Australia. Cheng emphasized his commitment to creating lasting value for stakeholders and driving sustainable growth in these regions.

As Youngtimers continues its global expansion, Cheng’s leadership marks a key milestone for the Basel-based, Swiss-listed small and mid-cap equity specialist, positioning the company for success in the years ahead.
