Sydney-born, New York-based energy trading firm Xpansiv has completed a capital raising in Europe.

The capital raising is designed to support growth in Australia and globally.

The deal attracted participation from nearly two dozen investors, including Capital Group, Kotak Mahindra Life Insurance Company, ChrysCapital, and Allspring. Smallcap World Fund Ind acquired the largest chunk, purchasing 34.7 lakh shares for ₹303 crore. Granules India stated the funds will support the second tranche of its ongoing preferential issue and next phase of growth initiatives.

The notes were sold through an underwriting syndicate including Barclays Bank, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and Capital One Securities. They were issued under existing senior indenture arrangements and registered under the Securities Act of 1933. Capital One entered into a paying agency agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon's London branch to administer payments on the euro-denominated securities. The transaction provides Capital One with continued access to international capital markets and diversifies its funding base through long-dated euro senior notes.
