Derivia Intelligence, Extel and Euromoney separately divested to Triple Private Equity

Delinian announces the divestment of Derivia Intelligence (“Derivia”), Extel and Euromoney to Triple Private Equity (“Triple”) through three separate transactions.  Triple is a leading, growth-focused private equity firm that specializes in B2B software and data across Financial Infrastructure and Governance, Risk and Compliance.

Derivia Intelligence is a platform that combines proprietary sourcing methods alongside AI and other modern technologies to transform and deliver complex, hard-to-source data into trusted feeds and insights for Investment Banks, Hedge Funds, Issuers and other market participants.  Derivia is comprised of three sector-leading brands: Structured Retail Products (SRP), GlobalCapital (GC) and Futures & Options World (FOW).

Extel sets the global standard for perception analytics and competitor benchmarking in capital markets.  Extel enables financial institutions and corporate investor relations teams to understand the quality and capabilities of the providers of sell-side services and evaluate investor engagement, as well as benchmarking corporate investor relations teams and the C-suite.

Euromoney is the premier global benchmarking and intelligence business for the banking industry.  Validating institutional performance and competitive standing for over 50 years, its certifications are widely regarded as the most prestigious endorsements in a sector where meaningful differentiation is business-critical and difficult to demonstrate.

Each of these standalone portfolio companies have experienced an acceleration in growth in recent years through Delinian’s “Invest, Grow and Divest” strategy, and all continue to demonstrate strong future growth potential.  They benefit from established, strong market positions, positive market trends and experienced and highly capable leadership teams. Derivia, Extel and Euromoney are all well placed to create further value within the Triple portfolio.

Mads Hansen, Head of Investments and Managing & Founding Partner at Triple Private Equity, commented:

“We are delighted to announce our investments in Derivia Intelligence, Extel and Euromoney. These businesses are a strong fit with our investment criteria, each being integral to mission-critical customer workflows with proprietary data assets, market leadership in specialist verticals and attractive growth profiles. We look forward to supporting the management teams of each of the businesses as they execute on their respective growth strategies and deliver even greater value to their customers.”

Ben Shepherd, Head of Value Creation & Founding Partner at Triple Private Equity, commented:

“These transactions further showcase our disciplined focus on investing in outstanding software and data businesses across Financial Infrastructure and Governance, Risk and Compliance, and our ability to identify unique investment opportunities. We are excited to partner with the management teams of each business, bringing our hands-on value creation approach and industry experience to help support their next phase of growth and leverage their unique data to deliver best-in-class products, intelligence and insights that are critical for customers.”

Andrew Pinder, CEO at Delinian added:

“Derivia, Extel and Euromoney operate distinct business models in their specialist markets, yet have common characteristics: reputed for their independence, accuracy and integrity, affording them deep market access and embedded, must-have customer workflow products.  These characteristics, coupled with strong growth and a raft of expansion opportunities, made these exceptionally attractive prospects to Triple.  I am delighted that each of these three businesses will have the opportunity to flourish with their new owners.  Many congratulations to Guy Dunn, David Enticknap and Guy Cooper, as well as their respective teams. We wish them continued professional and personal success in the exciting next chapters for each of their businesses.”

These deals are expected to complete later in March. No further details of the transactions will be released.
