Capital One Closes $485 Million Upsize to Covis Group’s Senior Credit Facility

Capital One announced today that it served as administrative agent and lead arranger for an amended and restated credit facility totaling approximately $960 million for Covis Group S.á.r.l. This includes a $485 million upsize to its existing facility in support of the company’s acquisition of AMAG Pharmaceuticals.
