ADM Capital, a prominent private equity investor in Turkey’s region, PGGM, the Dutch pension fund administrator and asset manager, and IFC, a member of the World Bank Group, have agreed to make a combined equity investment of $140 million in Universal Hospitals Group of Turkey, one of the country’s largest hospital networks and healthcare providers.
The investment will support the expansion of Universal Hospitals Group’s operations across the country, including non-major cities and provinces, a press release by the hospital chain said Wednesday.
With new hospital openings planned for this year, the Universal Hospitals Group will operate 18 hospitals in 12 cities in the Central Anatolia, Aegean, southern and eastern regions in addition to Istanbul, and will have one of the widest coverage among the private healthcare networks in the country, the press release said.
Following the restructuring that is realized with the share transfer of 26 percent to the investors, the shareholders appointed new members to the board of directors. The board, which comprises six members, includes four members, two of which are independent, that are appointed by the investors as well as Azmi Ofluoglu and Alev Ofluoglu of the family that have been running the chain.
”Universal Hospitals Group has been a pioneer in the development of the private healthcare industry since its opening in 1976,” said Azmi Ofluogu, chairman of Universal. “This new investment provides a broad financial base for our rapid expansion in order to meet the increasing needs of our communities. We have established a new management team led by Mahir Turan, an experienced hospital executive. I am also pleased to announce the appointment to the board of Curtis Schroeder, a recognized expert in international hospital management who brings world-class healthcare innovation to the Universal Hospital Group
”Universal is one of the premier providers of private healthcare services in Turkey”, said Anthony Stalker, partner of ADM Capital. “This is a unique opportunity to invest in a company with a longstanding presence in the sector, an established brand name and a broad geographical footprint. Our investment will provide the means for the company to achieve its long-term growth plans.”
