Centralis
Growing a leading international alternative asset and corporate services provider
CBPE partnered with the management team in a primary buyout of Centralis in May 2020.
The last five years have seen significant investment in the business, with headcount growing from 134 to 440 along with new systems and technology to support future sustainable growth.
Alongside continued double-digit organic growth, the business has completed and integrated seven acquisitions since CBPE invested. These acquisitions have expanded Centralis’ presence within alternative assets, a large and growing end market, alongside its existing client base of blue chip multi-national corporates. Combined organic and inorganic growth has led to revenue increasing over threefold under CBPE’s investment.
