Sidley advised Pepper Advantage, a leading international credit management and technology firm backed by J.C. Flowers & Co., on its acquisition of Computershare’s UK mortgage servicing business, Computershare Loan Services, subject to regulatory approval.
This strategic acquisition will increase Pepper Advantage’s UK assets under management to approximately £50 billion.
