Apex Group has announced the global investment firm Carlyle’s Global Credit business and Goldman Sachs Private Credit, have jointly committed in excess of US$1.1bn into the global financial services provider’s new Holdco PIK Notes. The companies say this endorses Apex’s sustainable growth strategy, following the successful integration of a number of previous acquisitions, continued strong organic growth, and technological innovations. Peter Hughes, founder and CEO at Apex Group, says: “We are extremely pleased to further expand our relationship with Carlyle and Goldman Sachs. The new issuance validates Apex’s strong business model but will also enable product and geographic expansion as well as further technology investment.”
