Paul Moss, Chief Financial Officer at ACP, said: “This new office is a testament to our commitment to Luxembourg as a jurisdiction for our investment strategies. The successful first close of our latest funds, ACP V and ACP Credit, further highlights our ongoing commitment to supporting businesses with flexible funding in our core region of Central Europe.”
