Private Equity & Credit Markets

Apollo Global Management is facing a liquidity crunch at its flagship retail credit fund, with only 5% of redemption requests being met as exits hit a 17% cap. This comes as private capital investors like Mérieux Private Equity express keen interest in the UK defense sector, particularly in AI-driven drug discovery where screening capabilities are accelerated. Meanwhile, European businesses are increasingly leveraging global hiring as a core growth strategy, a trend that could fuel further need for private equity capital in talent acquisition and expansion.
