“Evolution Markets and Xpansiv are two market leaders who share a common vision of paving the way forward to a successful energy transition using the power of global markets… As our clients manage risk in global energy and environmental markets, we are eager to leverage the capabilities of both organizations to improve overall client outcomes,” said Evan Ard, CEO of Evolution Markets. 

Additionally, Xpansiv closed a $125 million capital raise that should grow its service offerings and technology platforms. The raise was linked to the recent $400 million capital raise led by Blackstone Energy Partners which closed in August 2022. New strategic investors are Bank of America and Goldman Sachs which took part in it.

The deal should enhance the companies’ abilities to enhance decarbonization infrastructure and play their part in addressing the climate crisis.
