In 2004 Nordic Mezzanine invested in ANI Printing Inks, one of the leading printing ink manufacturers in Europe
with strong positions in the Narrow Web and Web Offset market segments.
In January 2002 the company was acquired from Akzo Nobel by Bencis (formerly NeSBIC) and the management.
In March 2004 the owners decided to make a recapitalisation which included an acquisition facility for future acquisitions.
Nordic Mezzanine underwrote the mezzanine loan facility in the recapitalisation.
It also acted as the lead arranger and the facility agent for the loan.
ANI Printing Inks was exited in connection with the sale of the company to CVC Capital Partners in November 2004.
