According to reports from the Financial Times, CVC, a European private equity firm, is considering a potential $75 billion acquisition of Golub Capital, a private credit lender. The private credit industry has been growing quickly as regulations have made traditional lending more expensive for riskier loans. Golub Capital, established in 1991, manages assets exceeding $75 billion and has a workforce of more than 1,000 professionals. Golub Capital's shares saw a 1.6% increase during after-hours trading. Whether a deal will materialize is uncertain, as Golub Capital is not actively seeking a sale, as per sources. Both CVC and Golub have not yet responded to requests for comment from Reuters.
