Hg and TA back The Access Group UK business software
What's the deal? The Access Group is a UK-headquartered business management software provider (HQ Loughborough, England). Hg first partnered in 2018 and, with TA Associates, led a further substantial equity investment in June 2022 — Access reported roughly £1 billion of new equity and a valuation near £9.2 billion at the time.
Context Access sits in Hg’s core European software portfolio (ERP, payroll and adjacent applications for mid-market organisations). Dealroom records the 2022 round as growth equity (non-VC) with Hg and TA as co-leads. Separate debt facilities sit alongside the equity story.
