Category: Portfolio news

CUBE, a global leader in Automated Regulatory Intelligence (“ARI”), today announced its acquisition of The Hub, a leading RegTech firm providing highly innovative artificial intelligence solutions for capturing and monitoring unstructured data across the regulatory internet.

As global regulations continue to rapidly evolve, firms have an increasing need for more effective ways to monitor their regulatory obligations, as well as predict and mitigate compliance risk.

CUBE is committed to providing the industry’s most advanced regulatory compliance technology to enable its customers to transform manual processes and base their strategies on a proven, purpose-built platform. The acquisition of The Hub will further CUBE’s capabilities and market reach to provide the most innovative solutions to regulated firms across the globe.

CUBE will seamlessly integrate The Hub technology with its market-leading RegPlatform to provide additional capabilities for customers to automate their regulatory compliance processes, reducing risk and compliance operating costs. The acquisition follows CUBE’s recent strategic growth investment from Bregal Milestone to support CUBE’s next phase of growth for further geographical expansion and to extend CUBE’s technology edge.

"The acquisition of The Hub marks the first in what is expected to be a number of purposeful acquisitions for CUBE as a consolidator of regulatory compliance focused firms and technologies in what is a highly fragmented RegTech market. The Hub’s team and solutions are best in class and represent many synergies with CUBE’s own capabilities. The current macro environment creates uncertainties for newer, less proven market entrants so it is ever more important that customers can be confident in selecting the right partner to support their long-term regulatory compliance strategy. CUBE’s vision and proven track record as the category-defining RegTech leader for ARI and strategic provider of choice to the world’s most highly regulated institutions, gives customers assurance that CUBE is here to partner with them in the long term."

CUBE’s strategy will ensure Hub’s employees, customers and partners are in safe hands and will benefit from further investment from what is clearly now the undisputed market leader."
