Our shared expertise and vision allow us to provide highly customized, value-driven solutions that cater to the sophisticated needs of investors globally.”
The strategic partnership will focus on several key areas, including cross-border M&A, private capital markets, and tailored capital solutions for private equity and private credit investors. It will also help both firms navigate complexities in global markets, enabling them to better meet client needs and expand their service offerings. This strategic alliance between KingsRock and One Partners will foster a newfound integration between LatAm, Europe, UK and the US.
