Cinven has agreed to acquire a majority stake in Objectway, a Milan-based provider of digital end-to-end “Solution-as-a-Service” platforms for wealth managers, banks, and asset managers.

The deal, subject to regulatory approval, will see founder and CEO Luigi Marciano remain a significant shareholder while continuing to lead the company alongside the existing management team.

Founded in 1990, Objectway delivers modular, front-to-back office solutions to over 250 financial institutions across more than 16 countries. The business combines scalable cloud-based technology with deep sector expertise, addressing growing industry demand for integrated platforms that replace fragmented legacy systems.

Cinven will provide strategic and financial backing to support technology innovation, organic growth, and targeted M&A. The investment marks the first deal from Cinven’s new European mid-market strategy, which targets high-growth companies in technology, financial services, and business services.

“Partnering with Cinven marks an exciting new chapter for Objectway,” said Marciano. “Their investment is a strong endorsement of our business model, our leadership team, and our long-term growth plan.”

Luigi Sbrozzi, Partner and Co-Head of Strategic Funds at Cinven, added: “We’re thrilled to back such a strong founder and management team to grow Objectway as a clear category leader, and look forward to working together to accelerate growth, broaden capabilities, and support global expansion.”

Advisers on the deal included Houlihan Lokey, BNP Paribas, and Deloitte for Objectway, and Jefferies, Freshfields, and PwC for Cinven.
