HgCapital secures Sporting Index

Mid-market private equity group HgCapital has clinched the acquisition of UK spread betting firm Sporting Index from Duke Street Capital for £75.8m (€110.5m).

Financial News reported on October 5 that HgCapital had entered exclusive talks with Duke Street after outbidding another private equity firm, Bridgepoint Capital, and bookmaker Ladbrokes in an auction last month.
