The PCP Capital Partners Group was founded in 2005 by Amanda Staveley, Chief Executive Officer. The Group is headquartered in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
PCP first came to international prominence with the takeover of Manchester City Football Club and then PCP’s leadership of the £3.25bn Abu Dhabi recapitalisation of Barclays Bank in 2008, considered to be one of the world’s outstanding corporate transactions in recent years.
PCP Capital Partners has invested into UK assets over the last 15 years in off-market transactions, both as a principal investor and through its advisory real estate division.
