In 2023 Pricoa Private Capital continued to be a consistent capital provider to UK and Irish borrowers. We remained focussed on developing long-term funding relationships with companies, consistent with our philosophy of being a funding partner through the cycle.
We are pleased to share some 2023 highlights:
- 36 transactions across the credit spectrum, totalling £1.6Bn invested. Borrowers raised capital for a wide range of purposes, including investment, refinancing, and interest rate management.
- 25 Investment Grade transactions totalling £1.1Bn, providing long-term fixed rate capital with a high proportion of bilateral activity seen during the year (79% bilateral excluding infrastructure).
- 5 Below Investment Grade transactions totalling £254mm, providing long-term fixed rate capital across a range of sectors.
