We have advised Obsequio Group (Obsequio), a provider of compliance and safety solutions and a portfolio company of Beech Tree Private Equity (Beech Tree), on its refinancing package from Kartesia and Barclays to support its ongoing buy-and-build strategy.
Headquartered in Leicestershire, founded by Simon Cashmore and Simon Abley, Obsequio provides a range of fire safety, security, and compliance solutions to ensure the environments where people spend their time, whether to live, learn or work, are completely safe.
Obsequio’s customers include hospitals, universities, local authorities, leisure centres, and student accommodation providers who all place their trust in Obsequio’s highly skilled engineers to supply, test, and maintain safety systems across fire detection and protection, water quality management, security, electrical safety, and energy efficiency.
Our Debt Advisory team raised a funding package that includes drawn and committed debt facilities from Kartesia and working capital facilities provided by Barclays.
Previously, we worked closely with Obsequio on its investment from Beech Tree in 2023 to help drive its ambitious growth strategy and provide additional funding for the group to acquire more complementary businesses in life safety and compliance services.
