Global Expansion Perpetual operates across Australia, Asia, Europe, the UK and the US with diversified asset management, wealth management and trustee services, creating opportunities to offer cross-border platform solutions, centralized reporting, and multi-currency onboarding for globally active clients. The recent Bain Capital acquisition of Perpetual Wealth Management signals potential scale benefits and demand for integrated wealth management technology across geographies.
Digital Onboarding The current tech stack includes Fenergo for onboarding, Power Automate for workflow automation and Azure DevOps for development, complemented by the Interfi Systems acquisition to bolster corporate trust capabilities. This positions Perpetual as a buyer of RegTech and automation solutions; opportunities exist to sell enhanced onboarding, KYC/AML, data integration, and API-driven workflows across asset management and trustee services.
Market Tech Edge Perpetual has taken stakes in market infrastructure players such as Cboe Global Markets, Shift4 Payments, and Chart Industries, indicating a strategy to deepen exposure to capital markets, payments, and data services. This creates sales opportunities for data analytics, market data integration, custody/settlement tooling, and scalable APIs for trading and asset servicing platforms.
Payments Platforms With a stake in Shift4 Payments and a growing digital and markets division, there is a clear opportunity to integrate modern payments capabilities into client portals, fund transactions, and treasury operations, including cross-border settlement, that enhance client experience and liquidity management.
Compliance Risk Regulatory and governance needs are evident via Fenergo usage and cross-border operations; opportunities exist to offer end-to-end regulatory compliance, KYC/AML, sanctions screening, tax and ESG reporting, and GRC solutions that scale with a growing multi-jurisdictional client base.
