Finastra to Sell Treasury and Capital Markets Division to Apax Funds

LONDON, May 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Finastra, a global provider of financial software applications, and funds advised by Apax Partners LLP ("Apax"), a leading global private equity advisory firm, today announced that they have entered into an agreement under which Finastra intends to sell its Treasury and Capital Markets ("TCM") business unit to an affiliate of Apax. Upon completion of the transaction, TCM will be rebranded and operated as a standalone business.

The sale of TCM will streamline Finastra's portfolio and generate capital for reinvestment to enhance the company's position as one of the world's leading software providers to financial services companies. Finastra remains focused on serving its diversified and established customer base in over 135 countries, offering deep domain expertise and best-in-class technology to many of the world's leading financial institutions and corporations.

"This sale marks an important milestone for Finastra that will help further launch our next phase of growth with a focused suite of mission-critical financial services software," said Chris Walters, CEO at Finastra. "It will provide capital to accelerate our strategy and reinvest in our core business, while providing our award-winning TCM platform with the backing of an experienced, long-term technology investor to support its continued success moving forward."

As an independent company working in partnership with the Apax Funds, TCM will be able to invest further in new product development, marketing and technology infrastructure to meet its customers' evolving needs. The Apax Funds will support TCM in sharpening strategic and operational focus, enhancing customer experience and accelerating technological advancements, including strengthening the company's cloud offering.
