Berlin, December 6, 2024 – YPOG provided comprehensive legal advice to global tech investment firm Partech on its investment of over €25 million in QPLIX, a founder-led Wealth Tech company and leader in wealth management software for family offices and private banks. This strategic investment by Partech’s growth fund will support QPLIX's growth objectives and aid in the implementation of its international expansion plans.
Partech's investment positions them as an investor alongside Deutsche Bank, with both collectively holding a minority stake in the company. This partnership, capitalizing on Partech's expertise in scaling international software companies, will bolster QPLIX's expansion into key markets including France, Switzerland, the UK, the Middle East, and the APAC region.
Kai Linde of QPLIX GmbH said, "Partech’s global network and extensive expertise make them the perfect partner for realizing our vision of international market leadership in the Wealth Tech sector. With Partech and Deutsche Bank, we are very well-positioned to expand into new markets."
Andrew Whiting from Partech echoed these sentiments, stating, "QPLIX sets the gold standard for family offices, asset managers, and private banks. We are excited to support QPLIX in accelerating their investments into new markets and further expanding the platform."
This investment marks another significant milestone in the successful journey of QPLIX. Frank Schriever, Vice Chairman Deutsche Bank Private Bank, noted, "The international expansion of QPLIX opens up new opportunities and services for our clients."
QPLIX's deep understanding of client needs and commitment to high-quality products have earned it a strong reputation in the market. The company's advanced wealth management software integrates all asset classes, offers powerful analytical tools, and provides highly customizable reporting. This investment will further enable QPLIX to provide comprehensive asset management solutions to its clients.
