777 Partners have suffered a major blow in a fresh concern to Everton after a company that has provided hundreds of millions of dollars to the group exited their relationship, according to The Athletic.
The sports news outlet reported on 29 February that A-Cap, a New York-based financial services company, pulled out of its relationship with 777 Re – a subsidiary of 777 Partners.
This came following both companies having their long-term credit rating downgraded by insurance industry rating agency AM Best.
It was explained that this could have a direct impact on Everton since 777 Re is one of the few businesses under their umbrella to make serious money in recent years.
