ACP Capital, the merchant bank and asset management group set up by former Nomura banker Derek Vago, has drafted in Citi as a joint broker to cater for its rapid growth since listing on London's junior market in January last year.

ACP said in a statement today it has brought in Citi to work with existing adviser and broker Collins Stewart, and added that it is in discussions about shifting its stock from the Alternative Investment Market, the London market for smaller companies, to the London Stock Exchange's main market.
