APS е създадена през 2004 г. За 20 години съществуване успяхме да заемем водеща позиция в 15 държави. Работим предимно на пазарите в Централна и Югоизточна Европа. Основата на нашия бизнес се състои от три стълба – алтернативно управление на активи, инвестиции в недвижими имоти и събиране на вземания.
Хронология
APS acquired first portfolio which was underwritten by Česká spořitelna (a member of Erste Group) with a NV of EUR 25 million. In the same year, the present sole shareholder – Martin Machoň – was employed to construct greenfield projects under a Czech license as a supervisor
APS performed its first cross-border transactions in Serbia and Slovakia and progressively expanded its operations and services.
Greenfiend operations started in Romania and a new service platform was acquired in Poland
Our company saw a year of remarkable expansion. With the backing of London and US-based investors, new investment platforms were established in Poland and Romania.
Slavia Capital consolidated its NPL portfolio and raised new capital for a Slovak–Cypriot investment structure named Serraghis Loan Management. Furthermore, a considerable securitization fund from Verde in Poland was acquired.
Greenfield expansion into Bulgaria
In 2012 greenfield expansion into Bulgaria, where we successfully obtained the first corporate NPL portfolio ever to be marketed in that country, took place
In Eastern and Southern Europe, the renowned IFC partnered with us to tackle NPL markets.
launching APS Fund Alpha
APS marked another momentous step in its history. The initiation of our respected relationship with the International Finance Corporation (IFC; a member of the World Bank Group) was another turning point in our development
APS won for investors its first secured retail portfolio from Volksbank Romania with a NV surpassing EUR 500 million.
Martin Machoň, CEO and previously a minority shareholder, purchased the majority interest from Slavia Capital Group and became the sole shareholder.
We launched a brand-new real estate investment services division in the same year, thereby broadening the range of our product portfolio.
APS executed the largest transaction of its type in South-eastern Europe and acquired management of portfolios with a total value of EUR 1.3 billion.
We continued growing and entered the markets in Croatia, Hungary, and Cyprus – where we successfully participated in NPL portfolio auctions. Moreover, this year was marked by the launch of APS Delta, a Luxembourg non-regulated securitization vehicle.
Additionally, APS acquired Hellenic Bank Public Company Ltd’s NPL and real estate management business in Cyprus, thereby initiating the full operation of the new Real Estate division. The aim of the collaboration was based on a joint-venture model to support the recovery of the Cypriot economy.
We launched operations in Greece by securing the biggest deal in our 15-year history – Piraeus Bank’s NPL portfolio with a NV exceeding EUR 2.3 billion. The APS Real Estate wing took over part of the commercial leasing portfolio originally held by the Real Estate Division of Immigon and started managing contracts with a total value of EUR 13 million. Finally, we proceeded to set up offices in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro.
С тази покупка станахме водещ инвеститор в тази сфера в Югоизточна Европа. Нашият отдел „Недвижими имоти“ въведе мрежата за оценяване Casazela и Syndre, която работи в Хърватия, Чехия, Унгария, Румъния и Сърбия.
Фондът беше изцяло инвестиран и разпредели общо 87 млн. евро в шестнадесет добре диверсифицирани сделки.
Първият подфонд RHAPSODY е събрал над 32 млн. евро, фокусира се върху инвестиции в сделки с проблемни дългове и големи корпоративни вземания, обезпечени с недвижими активи. Примери за такива обезпечения са логистични центрове, хотели, офис и жилищни сгради и земя. Фондът определи инвестиционната си стратегия така, че да отразява икономическото състояние на компаниите и потребителите, натоварени от последиците на глобалната среда след COVID-19.
През септември стартирахме втория подфонд RHAPSODY II и набрахме приблизително 23 млн. евро (APS CREDIT FUND SICAV набра общо приблизително 55 млн. евро). Подфондът представлява инвестиционна възможност с очаквана възвръщаемост над стандарта. Новосъздаденият фонд има за цел да закупи проблемни просрочени вземания.
