Q3 2021 Update

ACP has seen strong growth in 2021, with over £120m of debt facilities advised on and arranged, an expanding team, and new central London offices opened

Highlights

It has been a busy 2021 for ACP (see note 1) – we have raised over £120m of funding for 10 clients over the first 9 months of 2021

  • Across live and completed deals we have worked with over 25 owner-managed and sponsor backed businesses

  • The funding we have arranged has helped facilitate 9 acquisitions to date (with several more lined up for Q4 2021), funded organic growth, refinanced existing debt (to increase headroom and/or flexibility and/or to reduce the blended cost of capital), and funded shareholder restructurings and cash outs

  • Despite the challenges of the last 18 months, we believe that debt markets continue to have strong appetite to finance businesses that present themselves and their ‘ask’ to funders in a clear and supportable fashion
