Wolters Kluwer Financial Services Acquires FinArch

Wolters Kluwer Financial Services, which has more than 15,000 financial sector customers worldwide, has acquired rival FinArch. It said that the combined company could provide financial institutions with better control and insight of their financial data, and ultimately, a clearer enterprise view and enhanced management of their risk and performance.

Wolters Kluwer added that since the financial crisis, institutions globally have recognised the need and value in the convergence of risk and finance, requiring high-quality data and integrated data management. Organisations now also face added pressure to have a better enterprise view of risk and financial management at a time when the regulatory and business environment is incredibly dynamic.

“By better harnessing the power of their data across all asset classes, financial organisations can more effectively manage risk and financial performance, and help ensure regulatory compliance while reducing costs and increasing operational effectiveness,” said Brian Longe, chief executive officer (CEO) of the Wolters Kluwer financial and compliance services division.
