DealStreetAsia is a Singapore-based financial news website, founded in 2014 by Joji Thomas Philip.

It is a financial news platform tracking private equity, venture capital activity, deal flows, initial public offers, investments, fund-raising, startups and targets and aspires to be the go-to destination portal for deal activity in Asia. Headquartered in Singapore, DEALSTREETASIA has a team of 30+ spread out across Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, HK, China, India, Taiwan, Malaysia and Thailand. The portal's focus on breaking news and exclusives and big picture coverage helps it differentiate itself in an aggregation-dominant market.

In 2019, the Financial Times's owner Nikkei, Inc. purchased a majority stake in the company, and existing stakeholders Singapore Press Holdings, North Base Media, Alpha JWC, SGAN, Vijay Sharma, K2 Global founder Ozi Amanat, Jim Rogers and others achieved multiple returns on their investment. India's Mint (Hindustan Times) continues to remain a shareholder. The deal details were not made public.
