As part of the AP Moller Group, AP Moller Capital benefits from over a century of knowledge, experience and insights the group has accumulated through investing in and operating scaled assets in logistics and transportation in diverse markets around the globe. It has built a highly experienced team which brings together investors with decades of experience in industrial value creation from within the AP Moller Group, as well as global private equity and infrastructure investment firms.
In a joint statement, Maxime Franzetti and Fatima Al Noaimi of Abu Dhabi Catalyst Partners said, “We are excited to begin our partnership with AP Moller Capital.
