Capgemini has acquired 100% of the share capital of Delta Capita BV and its subsidiary Delta Capita Academy BV, which is based in the Netherlands and specializes in Financial Crime Compliance (FCC) services. This is Capgemini’s second purchase in FCC space in the last 18 months. This deal enhances Capgemini’s services in Europe related to financial crime, risk management, and compliance with regulations, adding to their existing strengths in countries like Romania, Poland, India, and the UK. The signing and completion of the deal happened at the same time on April 16.
Delta Capita BV and its Academy in the Netherlands have a team of over 200 KYC analysts and consultants who are skilled in handling complicated laws and regulations. They assist clients in managing regulations, focusing on Know Your Customer (KYC), preventing bribery and corruption, and creating risk management policies. Their clients include large banks, insurance companies, and pension funds, which fit well with Capgemini’s services.
The expertise of the Delta Capita team, along with their ability to speak multiple languages, will allow Capgemini to offer comprehensive advisory and management services in financial crime. This is especially important as European financial services increasingly need both complex and standard regulatory services, as well as support for Dutch pension laws.
“Financial crime compliance, by its very nature, requires an intimate knowledge of rapidly evolving local legislation. The acquisition of Delta Capita BV will position the Group as the global partner of choice in KYC transformation,” comments Kartik Ramakrishnan, CEO of Capgemini’s Financial Services and Group Executive Board Member. “Our end-to-end strategic business and technology services coupled with comprehensive KYC on, near and offshore capabilities, are complementary to this highly skilled Netherlands based team who will augment our European footprint for FCC. I am delighted to welcome them to Capgemini.”
“Preventing financial crime, managing risks, and following regulations are very important for the financial services industry. Companies are looking for complete solutions to manage their financial crime challenges,” said Tom Kastelein, CEO of Delta Capita BV. “Capgemini’s worldwide reach, strong partnerships, and established skills in financial services make them a great fit for our team, especially for complex projects and a global client base. We are excited to join Capgemini.”
