Regnology has recently secured a substantial investment from Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP Investments).
Alongside a new investment from existing owner Nordic Capital, this funding underscores a robust vote of confidence in Regnology’s future prospects.
The company announced that it raised approximately €460m (C$690m) for a significant minority stake, with CPP Investments and Nordic Capital facilitating the transaction. Nordic Capital will continue to hold a majority stake through its entities, Nordic Capital X and Nordic Capital XI, demonstrating continued support and belief in Regnology’s strategic direction.
Regnology is renowned for its innovative solutions in regulatory, risk, and supervisory technology, serving over 35,000 financial institutions and 70 regulators and tax authorities worldwide. Its technology helps streamline processes, enhance data quality, and boost efficiency across financial systems, making it a cornerstone in the RegTech sector.
The new influx of capital will be instrumental for Regnology as it plans to accelerate its international expansion both organically and through strategic acquisitions. The investment will also enable further enhancement of its technology and product offerings, improving customer success rates and fostering development within its teams.
Additional plans include the recent strategic acquisition of VERMEG’s RegTech business unit, Agile, which is set to expand Regnology’s footprint in the crucial North American and APAC markets. This move is aimed at strengthening its position as a comprehensive provider of regulatory reporting solutions on a global scale.
Fredrik Näslund, Partner and Head of Technology & Payments at Nordic Capital Advisors, commented, “Under Nordic Capital’s ownership, Regnology has transformed from a carve-out into a sizeable software platform in the RegTech space and the management team has successfully executed the key levers of the initial value creation plan. Nordic Capital is delighted to be investing further together with CPP Investments to support this journey, allowing Regnology to scale its business model globally. We also want to thank BearingPoint Capital as a strategic partner and minority investor over the last four years.”
Sam Blaichman, Managing Director, Head of Direct Private Equity at CPP Investments, added, “Regnology has a leading position in attractive and resilient markets, with a differentiated offering driving high customer advocacy. Under its current leadership, Regnology has demonstrated a strong track-record of entering and winning in new geographies. We look forward to supporting the management team’s global ambitions alongside Nordic Capital. We expect this investment to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns for CPP contributors and beneficiaries.”
Rob Mackay, CEO of Regnology, also shared his enthusiasm, “Nordic Capital’s support has been pivotal in our journey, and we are thrilled for CPP Investments to come on board as we enter the next phase of our global expansion. With their combined strengths, we are empowered to further invest in developing our SaaS solutions and accelerate our vision of creating a dedicated network that streamlines regulatory data flows, helping both regulators and the regulated in navigating the complexities of financial regulation.”
Since Nordic Capital first invested in Regnology in December 2020, the company has surpassed its operational and financial targets and has engaged in significant investments to bolster its technology and product platform.
