Keppel Capital to buy 50% interest in Pierfront Capital Fund Management

It will act as the investment manager of their combined funds.

KC Management One, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Keppel Capital, has entered into a conditional sales and purchase agreement to acquire a 50% interest in Pierfront Capital Fund Management (PCF) for a consideration of $10.8m (US$7.8m).

The stake will be bought from Pierfront Capital Mezzanine Fund (PCMF). Pierfront Capital is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PCMF, a Singapore-based alternative credit investment company in which Temasek and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation hold approximately 90.91% and 9.09% interests, respectively.

Under the terms of the shareholders agreement to be entered into among KC Management One, Pierfront Capital and PCMF, Pierfront Capital will act as the investment manager of Keppel-Pierfront Private Credit Funds, a series of funds that would be established to provide credit to corporates or projects in the real asset sectors.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
