“The entry of Silver Lake into Grupo BC’s capital marks the beginning of a new growth stage and challenges for the group. It validates the strategy and all the work done by its management team and employees, with the support of its shareholders over the years. I would like to thank the Oaklins team for their hard work, professionalism and dedication during these months, which helped us to achieve this extraordinary result. They demonstrated a deep understanding of the BPO services sector, the group and its need to undertake its future growth plan, and, most importantly, they were absolutely trustworthy and put the interests of the shareholders and the management team above all other considerations. I am therefore confident that Oaklins will continue to advise Grupo BC in the coming years.”
