GTCR to Acquire AssetMark for $2.7 Billion in Cash

  • April 25, 2024

GTCR AMK Merger

Private equity firm GTCR has entered into a merger with wealth management platform AssetMark Financial (AMK) for $2.7 billion.

AssetMark shareholders will receive $35.25 per share in cash from the private equity firm, representing a 1% premium from the stock’s last close. The risk arbitrage spread on the deal is just north of 4%, which indicates that the market expects this deal to close later this year with significant hurdles.

The deal will be financed with a credit facility and equity capital from funds affiliated with GTCR.

Concord, California-based AssetMark provides technology solutions to financial advisors to manage client investment portfolios and report and analyze their performance.

AssetMark will no longer be listed on any public market after the completion of the deal, which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2024.
