MaxCap, a local private credit firm backed by Apollo Global Management, has told investors that it was owed $70 million over a failed Melbourne commercial property development that was ultimately put on the market and managed to secure a bid of only $68 million.

The Australian Financial Review revealed on Wednesday that APH Holding had collapsed owing MaxCap at least $150 million. However, the private credit firm has not publicly disclosed the extent of its exposure to the failed builder, which was owned by Chinese businessman James Zhang.
