Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. As part of the deal, over 100 employees of Italy-based Algorfin will migrate to Objectway.
Unione Fiduciaria managing director Filippo Cappio said: “With this sale, the process of focusing on fiduciary activity, the company’s core business, continues and accelerates.
“This operation allows Unione Fiduciaria to invest additional resources for expansion and thus continue a path already started several years ago.”
With the latest transaction, Objectway’s annual consolidated revenues stand at around €75m.
Objectway funded the deal with the assistance of lending banks UBI Banca and Unicredit.
