Pan-European asset manager Arrow Global Group has completed the full acquisition of financing provider Maslow Capital.
The acquisition follows Arrow Global's initial purchase of a significant minority stake in December 2021 and a 20-month period of successful collaboration that has seen the expansion of Maslow Capital’s loan book.
Founded in 2009, Maslow Capital has built a track record in originating, underwriting, and servicing specialist real estate loans ranging from £10 mln to £300 mln.
According to Arrow, the acquisition strengthens the firm's lending opportunities strategy and complements its existing investment activities across opportunistic credit and real estate.
While the acquisition expands Arrow’s direct lending capabilities in the UK, it also enables Maslow Capital, which will continue under the leadership of chairman Marc Rose and CEO Ellis Sher, to significantly expand its operational reach across Europe through Arrow's European asset management and servicing network.
Arrow’s existing UK platforms include Eagle Street Partners, Blue Current Capital, Drydensfairfax and Bergen Capital. With this addition, the Group now owns 18 specialist asset management and servicing platforms across five European markets.
Zach Lewy, group CEO and chief investment officer of Arrow Global, said: 'Arrow invests across European geographies, asset classes and positions in the capital stack. To execute this strategy, we have developed our geographical and asset class expertise.
'Maslow is an accretive addition to our existing direct lending strategy which includes specialist mortgage and term products through RNHB. Being part of the Arrow platform will allow Maslow to expand its services across Europe. We are delighted to announce the full acquisition.'
Marc Rose and Ellis Sher, chairman and CEO of Maslow Capital, jointly said: 'We look forward to leveraging Arrow's deep platform capabilities across Europe and to develop Maslow into a leading pan-European real estate finance provider.
'This acquisition marks the beginning of our broader strategy to offer adaptable, innovative, and timely real estate financing solutions throughout Europe's living sectors, using Arrow’s extensive resources and capital to create value for all stakeholders.'
