Completion of acquisition

On 1 March 2018, Arrow Global Group PLC ('Arrow' and, together with its subsidiaries, the 'Group'), a leading European investor and asset manager in non-performing and non-core assets, announced the proposed acquisition of Europa Investimenti S.p.A., a leading originator and manager of Italian distressed debt investments. Arrow is pleased to confirm that the acquisition has now completed.

Lee Rochford, CEO, said:

'The acquisition of Europa Investimenti represents another logical step of our considered entry into the Italian market. The combination of a highly-skilled management team with an excellent track record of value creation and access to our strong funding structure, creates a powerful investment platform to drive strong returns from attractive corporate and SME assets.

'When combined with our diverse institutional fund client base and our strategy to continue to raise third-party funds to invest in high-return assets, we remain excited by Europa Investimenti's potential to grow income from the Group's capital-light Asset Management and Servicing business.'
