Euroclear acquires 90% stake in Inversis from Banca March

Banca March has completed the sale of a 90% stake in Inversis to Euroclear for approximately 393 million euros. This transaction follows a previous sale of nearly half the company for 172 million euros announced in the summer of 2024. The most recent tranche involved the transfer of an additional 41% stake for 221 million euros.

Under the terms of the agreement, Euroclear is expected to acquire the remaining 10% of Inversis within 18 months, potentially bringing the total deal value to over 430 million euros depending on specific clauses. Inversis will continue to operate as an independent entity, maintaining its name, teams, and local market expertise.

The acquisition is intended to serve as a platform for Euroclear’s Mediterranean strategy, aiming to drive growth in Spain and Italy. For Inversis, the partnership provides access to larger institutional clients and the ability to export its business model to new markets. Euroclear, a major European financial infrastructure provider, will use the acquisition to strengthen its presence in Southern Europe and expand its fund services.
