jurisdictions.

compliance platform, which currently serves more than 160 clients across North
America, EMEA, and Asia.
Targeting Potential Acquisitions
According to the company’s announcement, FundApps
plans to use the capital to enhance its product suite through organic
development and potential acquisitions.

platform covers over $29 trillion in assets under management.
“This strategic investment is a powerful validation of
our differentiated offering and strong growth to date, and we’re thrilled to be
partnering with the FTV team for this next chapter,” commented Andrew Patrick
White, Founder and CEO of FundApps.

network of blue-chip buy and sell-side institutions, both of which will be
integral as we continue to scale our platform and strengthen our position
across the financial ecosystem.”
