Hg Agrees Sale of Quantios to Vista Equity Partners
Hg agreed to sell its majority shareholding in trust and corporate services software provider Quantios to Vista Equity Partners, generating a roughly 30 percent uplift to book value.
LONDON, July 29, 2026. Hg, the leading investor in European and transatlantic software and services businesses, today announced that it has agreed the sale of its majority shareholding in Quantios, a leading provider of SaaS solutions to the global trust and corporate services industry, to Vista Equity Partners.
Hg first invested in the business in 2022, then TrustQuay, and in 2023 merged it with ViewPoint (owned by funds managed by EQT, a global private markets firm) to create Quantios, a global champion for the trust and corporate services industry. Over the period of Hg's ownership, the business has grown into a global platform partnering with close to 700 organisations worldwide, underpinned by its flagship Quantios Core and Klea solutions.
Central to the value created under Hg's ownership has been Quantios's product-led AI strategy. Generative AI is now embedded natively within Quantios Core and delivered to customers as standard, while a separately priced agentic AI layer automates higher-complexity regulated workflows for clients, with a suite of specialised agents available today and a larger identified pipeline in development.
This roadmap was developed with support from Hg Catalyst, a dedicated AI incubator and engineering team, which launched the business's first agentic solution in March 2026. The roadmap has since become central to the company's value proposition and was a key driver for technology-focused buyer interest and for future growth of the business.
Chris Fielding, Partner at Hg, and Conor Stewart, Principal at Hg, said Quantios is a high-quality business serving a mission-critical sector, deeply embedded in its customers' operations.
Guy Harrison, CEO of Quantios, said that since partnering with Hg and EQT, the company transformed two specialist software businesses into a scaled, integrated platform.
The sale of Quantios will see a c.30% uplift to Hg's latest book value and is the latest in a series of cash-back events generated by Hg, with three full or partial exits completed since early 2026, reflecting continued investor appetite for high-quality, mission-critical technology businesses that generate resilient, growing cash flows. Alongside GTreasury (acquired by Ripple) and Intelerad (acquired by GE HealthCare), Quantios also demonstrates how significant upfront investment in a company's AI product suite can drive strong buyer interest.
The transaction is subject to customary conditions and approvals and is expected to be completed in Q3 2026. Baird and Deutsche Bank acted as sellside advisors to Hg.
