The acquisition of International Personal Finance by New York-based BasePoint Capital has now completed.
Commenting on the transaction, IPF CEO Gerard Ryan said:
"What is particularly exciting about this new chapter for IPF is the opportunity it creates for our business and the possibilities to deliver our purpose to build a better world through financial inclusion. BasePoint brings deep experience in our sector and a proven track record of accelerating growth. It intends to work with us to accelerate our own growth plans and is a firm believer in our purpose of building financial inclusion.
We believe this creates a strong foundation to build on our existing strategy and continue bringing benefits to our customers, our people and the communities we serve."
BasePoint CEO Eric Schneider added: "We are delighted to welcome IPF into the BasePoint group. We are excited about the opportunity ahead and the role IPF can play in expanding access to responsible financial services. IPF is a high-quality business with a strong management team, deep customer relationships and a clear sense of purpose. We have great respect for what has been built and are excited about the opportunity to support its continued growth. Our intention is to work in partnership with the IPF team, supporting the business with our experience, resources and long-term perspective. We look forward to building the next chapter together."
The transaction has completed following shareholder approval, Court sanction and regulatory clearances. IPF is now privately-owned by BasePoint but remains a UK-incorporated business headquartered in Leeds. This is a change in ownership, not in how the business operates. There is no impact on customers, products or services.
New York-based BasePoint Capital is an established provider of asset-based financing and liquidity solutions to specialty finance companies, including commercial, fintech and consumer originators with deep experience in consumer specialty finance.
