Monroe Capital acted as sole lead arranger and administrative agent on the funding of a senior term loan to support APCO Worldwide’s buyout of minority shareholders.

The partnership will provide potential for additional capital, which APCO can use for growth, acquisition and continued innovation to meet the changing demands of the marketplace and better service clients.

Washington, D.C.-based APCO is a women- and employee-owned global communication consultancy.

“We are proud to have been selected by APCO as their term loan partner for this next phase of growth,” said Ted Koenig, founder and CEO of Monroe Capital. “We are excited by the potential of what we believe is a premier firm that is truly making a difference for the clients they serve.”
