Algomi secures yet another investment this year

Algomi has been securing investments and partnerships steadily since the company’s launch in 2012. In the last six months, the company has secured three partnerships, with significant investment. Algomi will be working with Openfin, AllianceBernstein and S&P Global.

The latest collaboration came from S&P Global along with an investment. Algomi will have a long-term commercial relationship with S&P Global that will result in product and data collaboration.

S&P Global’s investment bought them a minority stake in Algomi and a seat on the board of directors. S&P Global will use Algomi’s bond trading technology to push into new markets.

Collaboration and diversification

Partnerships like the ones that Algomi has been entering benefit both parties. The larger, well-established companies are seeking to diversify their businesses to gain some stability.

Events like the 2008 financial crisis have shaken up the financial world and companies now know that collaboration between cutting-edge financial technology companies and well-established financial institutions can be the way to stability.

Strategic investments like S&P Global’s in Algomi makes even moresense because they can improve their own businesses by utilising each other’s data and in the case of Algomi, software.
