Key Findings & Highlights:

In 2012, Sopra Steria started Sopra Banking Software (SBS) to deliver solutions and managed services to the financial services industry. The intent was to develop a single platform to enable interoperability across silos. In September 2024, Sopra Steria agreed to sell SBS to Axway Software. Axway is a publicly-held French-American information technology company. Sopra Steria owns 11.1% of Axway’s shares. Sopra Steria agreed to sell SBS to focus its activities on digital services and solutions. The separation of the two businesses was completed September 2024.
