Inflexion buys minority stake in Auxadi
Private equity firm Inflexion has acquired a stake of around 40% in Auxadi, a Spanish accounting business.
This is the first deal made by the GP in Spain.
Inflexion intends to boost Auxadi's growth via additional acquisitions and geographic expansion.
The GP invested in the business via its minority-dedicated fund, Partnership Capital II, which closed on £1bn in May 2018.
In addition to this vehicle, the firm is currently deploying Enterprise Fund V, which closed on £400m in April 2019; and its Buyout Fund V, which held a final close on £1.25bn in May 2018.
Inflexion is based in London and invests equity tickets in the £10-250m range to acquire both majority and minority stakes in businesses operating in a wide range of sectors. The firm has total assets under management of around £5.4bn.
