Teciem launched as a new standalone provider of treasury and capital markets software following Apax Funds’ acquisition of Finastra’s Treasury and Capital Markets (TCM) division. Backed by a significant investment commitment from Apax, Teciem said it will prioritize product development and innovation while expanding and supporting its specialist talent base.
Headquartered in London, Teciem begins operations with more than 340 financial institution customers, including 70 of the world’s top 100 banks. The company’s portfolio includes Kondor, Summit, Opics, Sophis, Fusion Risk, and Fusion Invest, which support treasury and capital markets workflows across trading lifecycle, risk management, regulatory compliance, and investment management.
Teciem will be led by CEO Wissam Khoury, who previously served as executive vice president of Finastra’s TCM business unit for the past four years. The company said the full TCM organization, including 1,300 employees and the senior leadership team, is transitioning from Finastra to Teciem to provide continuity across client relationships, product support, and service delivery.
The launch marks the completion of Finastra’s sale of its TCM business unit. Financial terms were not disclosed. Apax said it plans to support Teciem as it operates independently, invests in its product roadmap, and builds on its existing client relationships and global delivery capabilities.
