In a bold move that underscores the rising influence of private credit, Apollo Global Management is set to inject £4.5 billion ($6 billion) into the long-delayed Hinkley Point C nuclear power project in the U.K.—one of the largest private loans in British history. This landmark financing deal not only rescues a critical infrastructure initiative but also signals a new chapter for private markets investing in European mega-projects.

As CNBC reports, the investment reflects a growing appetite among U.S. private credit giants for long-duration opportunities across Europe, particularly in sectors like energy, transportation, and digital infrastructure. And Allvue Systems CEO Marc Scheipe sees this as a clear inflection point.

“Apollo’s private credit deal with Hinkley Point is a major signal to the increasing maturity of the private credit industry,” Scheipe told CNBC. “The market is growing increasingly competitive, underscoring its growing role in funding large-scale infrastructure, typically dominated by public markets.”

Scheipe also pointed to the strategic momentum behind this trend: “We expect more U.S. private credit firms to target European opportunities, particularly in sectors requiring long-duration capital, to diversify their portfolio and secure undervalued European assets that offer the potential for strong returns.”

It’s a pivotal moment for the global private credit market—and Allvue is proud to be helping firms manage the complexity of these deals with next-generation technology for fund operations, compliance, and portfolio oversight
