Dedagroup: growth strategy continues to include a non-organic approach with the acquisition of Pegaso 2000

 

The transaction — the fifth in 12 months — confirms Dedagroup’s role as an aggregating hub of Italian tech firms and further reinforces the suite of solutions that the Group offers to support credit management

 

Dedagroup S.p.A., the aggregating hub of leading Italian firms in the Software and Solutions as a Service market, currently operating in over 50 countries with more than 4,000 customers, announces the acquisition of Pegaso 2000, a historic IT firm based in the Umbria Region with a team of 70 people specializing in software solutions for applications in credit finance, guarantee schemes and funds and money markets.

The acquisition — which falls within the framework of the already extended scope of operation of the Group’s Finance Hub — follows on a long, consolidated partnership between the two companies, which over time has demonstrated the value of the relationship to end clients. The goal is to permanently integrate into the Group's range the technologies and solutions offered by Pegaso 2000, adding dynamic, predictive models to complement the traditional parameters for evaluating and managing credit positions, through innovative solutions based on artificial intelligence algorithms and machine learning, which represent effective, indispensable evaluation tools for banks.

 
 

This important new acquisition will allow us to achieve structural integration of high-value individuals and software solutions into our already advanced range and team, in keeping with our mission of supporting the economy in the challenge of the digital and technological transition
