    SEVEN years after its listing on the Euronext Paris in 2017, Tikehau Capital may finally be finding its moment.

    The investment group, founded by former bankers Antoine Flamarion and Mathieu Chabran, is focused on private assets – in particular, the red-hot market of private debt.

    Tikehau raised 6.5 billion euros (S$9.4 billion) in net new money last year – 37 per cent more than the average raised annually from 2017 to 2022.
