A&O Shearman advises PSG Equity on strategic investment in Checkmk

A&O Shearman advised leading growth equity firm PSG Equity on the financing for its recent deal with Checkmk, a leading German IT infrastructure monitoring vendor.

The partnership with PSG, who specialize in working with software and technology-enabled services companies to drive transformational growth, marks a new phase for Checkmk. Founded in 2007, Checkmk has become a leader in IT monitoring, providing customers with real-time insights into mission-critical infrastructures across diverse IT environments via a unified, single-pane-of-glass view. 

PSG’s strategic investment will bolster the company’s research and development efforts and will accelerate plans to scale its international footprint—all while continuing to deliver its high-ROI solutions to organizations that demand excellence in both product performance and customer experience.

The A&O Shearman team was led by sponsor-side leveraged finance partner Nick Hallam, senior associate Susie Emmanuel and associates Nahima Parvin and Talisha Ariarasa in London and, in Germany, by finance partner Rauni Ahammer and associate Georg Luetkenhaus.
