The Carlyle Group has led a preferred equity investment for Apex Group, the Bermuda-based global financial services provider. Apex will use the capital to support ongoing growth and acquisition activities, including its previously announced acquisitions of Luxembourg-based FundRock and Banco Modal’s alternative fund administration business in Brazil. Carlyle recently agreed to buy a majority stake in Calastone, the funds network, and is part of a consortium looking to acquire Link Administration in Australia.
