Delta Capita has secured a deal to merge with Voogt Pijl & Partners, a Dutch consultancy firm, as part of its long-term strategy to build a global network of consultancy branches and offer an alternative to the Big Four.
The international managed services provider, consulting and solutions firm says the merger will enable it to further extend its customer reach in Benelux (Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg) financial services and accelerate growth “through the development of innovative propositions with leading-edge technology”.
Voogt Pijl & Partners has expertise in know-your-customer advisory and will assist clients, including banks, insurance companies and pension funds, onboarding to Karbon – Delta Capita’s client lifecycle management service platform, the firm explains.
Following the acquisition, the senior management team of Voogt Pijl & Partners will hold a prominent role in the Benelux consulting practice and remain the primary point of contact for their clients, says Delta Capita.
Following the acquisition, Delta Capita notes that its new clients will benefit its technology capabilities, international presence and managed services in structured retail products, client lifecycle management, pricing and risk and post-trade.
This is one of a series of acquisitions Delta Capita has made since taking in $150 million investment capital from Prytek in March earlier this year.
“Bringing the strong team of Voogt Pijl & Partners on board within the Delta Capita family will scale our consulting business and help our clients in reaching their goals,” says CEO of Delta Capita Benelux Tom Kastelein.
“The transaction demonstrates our commitment to the Benelux region and provides clients with a strong value alternative to the big four.”
Commenting on the acquisition, Voogt Pijl & Partners’ managing partners Robert Voogt, Wouter Pijl, and Maikel Miggelbrink explain: “We are excited to join the Delta Capita organisation and be able to benefit from existing competencies, international position and technological capabilities.
“We will form the senior management of the consultancy practice in Benelux knowing that our shared vision on the consulting profession is a key success-factor to optimise added value for our clients.”
