Key Findings & Highlights:
Avaloq was founded to provide banks with a core banking platform, Avaloq Banking Suite. Currently, 150 banks in 35 countries use the platform. The platform has robust functionality for wealth and asset management services. In 2011 it expanded its services into BPaaS by acquiring a 51% stake in B-Source, offering banking BPaaS services exclusively on the Avaloq software. Today, Avaloq delivers software in both on-premises and hosted versions. The SaaS and BPaas delivery models are growing much faster than the on-premise model.
In 2020 Avaloq was acquired by NEC for $2.2bn. Since the merger, Avaloq has been expanding its geographic presence into new geographies, including APAC and North America. Avaloq has focused on growing its business outside of Europe exclusively through SaaS and BPaaS delivery.
