Headquartered in Germany, ACTICO Group specialises in digitising regulatory compliance, asset management, regulatory reporting, and automating credit risk management for banks and insurers worldwide. Known for its robust, functionality-rich, efficient and modern technology solutions, the company helps financial institutions stay compliant with evolving regulations and effectively manage risk.

An established leader in the DACH market, ACTICO Group serves over 300 clients globally. The company has enjoyed strong commercial traction in recent years, following significant investment in its cloud capabilities, integrability, and machine learning and AI capabilities in collaboration with the BU Funds. ACTICO Group has continued to grow in Europe, while also winning new clients in the Americas and Asia, as banks and insurers are increasingly pushed to adopt more modern tooling to meet sophisticated regulatory and customer requirements worldwide.

ACTICO Group plans to cement its market position in existing geographies and accelerate internationally, while continuing to invest in expanding its product suite over the coming years. The company’s products seamlessly integrate with globally leading technological partners and will continue expanding its technology and implementation partnerships. Keensight will support the acceleration of ACTICO Group’s international development and product roadmap, both organically and via acquisitions.

Hans Jürgen Rieder, CEO at ACTICO Group, commented: “We thank BU for their support over the past four years. Their dedication and experience in the software industry took ACTICO Group to the next level and we are delighted that BU will continue to be a valued partner in our journey under Keensight’s new ownership. The partnership with Keensight will enable us to unlock the next phase of our growth journey. Keensight’s experience in scaling software companies, along with their global network, will enable ACTICO Group to capitalise on new opportunities across key markets and deliver even more value to our clients.”

Stanislas de Tinguy, Partner at Keensight Capital, added: “ACTICO Group is uniquely positioned to capitalise on the rapidly evolving credit and compliance software market. With its seasoned and innovative leadership team, we look forward to supporting the company’s expansion, and we are excited to help accelerate its growth in existing and new markets.”

Philipp Struth, Partner at BU, concluded: “Over the past four years, we have actively supported ACTICO Group in developing its product portfolio, building a high-performing management team and positioning the organisation for sustainable growth. With this strong foundation in place, we are confident that ACTICO Group is now ready for its next phase of scaling – and we look forward to continuing to support the fantastic team as a partner on this journey.”

The acquisition is expected to complete in May 2025 subject to customary regulatory approvals.
