Capgemini Acquires Delta Capita BV to Enhance FCC Services
Capgemini has acquired Delta Capita BV and its subsidiary Delta Capita Academy BV from Delta Capita Group Ltd, expanding its financial crime compliance services across Europe.
Based in the Netherlands, the acquired companies bring more than 200 Know Your Customer (KYC) analysts and consultants experienced in complex legal and regulatory frameworks.
These specialists help clients navigate Know Your Customer requirements—procedures for verifying client identities and assessing risks to prevent financial crimes.
Broadening compliance service capabilities
Delta Capita's expertise extends to anti-bribery, corruption prevention, and risk management policy frameworks. Its addition complements Capgemini's existing operations in Romania, Poland, India and the UK.
Together, they will deliver services across all three defence lines in financial crime prevention: operational controls at the front end, risk oversight functions for monitoring, and independent assurance activities that provide verification.
Demand continues to grow among European financial services firms for both complex and standard regulatory services, particularly relating to Dutch pension legislation compliance, which the combined team is positioned to address.
Cross-border expertise strengthens market position
With multi-lingual staff, Capgemini can now better serve clients across European markets where financial crime compliance requirements vary significantly by jurisdiction.
Kartik Ramakrishnan, CEO of Capgemini's Financial Services and Group Executive Board Member, says: "Financial crime compliance, by its very nature, requires an intimate knowledge of rapidly evolving local legislation.
“The acquisition of Delta Capita BV will position the Group as the global partner of choice in KYC transformation.
“Our end-to-end strategic business and technology services coupled with comprehensive KYC on, near and offshore capabilities, are complementary to this highly skilled Netherlands based team who will augment our European footprint for FCC. I am delighted to welcome them to Capgemini."
Delta Capita BV serves major banks, insurers and pension firms, complementing Capgemini's existing client relationships in financial services.
Cost-effective compliance solutions
European financial institutions increasingly need robust financial crime prevention systems while controlling operational costs. Capgemini aims to deliver solutions addressing both requirements through this expanded capability.
“Capgemini's global scale, partner ecosystem and well-established financial services expertise, were a natural fit for our team in terms of complex project scope and global client base. We are very happy to be joining the Group"
Tom Kastelein, CEO of Delta Capita BV, adds: "Financial crime mitigation, risk management and regulatory compliance are business critical for the financial services industry and firms are now seeking comprehensive solutions for their end-to-end FCC transformation and ongoing management.
“Capgemini's global scale, partner ecosystem and well-established financial services expertise, were a natural fit for our team in terms of complex project scope and global client base. We are very happy to be joining the Group."
With revenues of €22.1bn (US$25.4bn) in 2024, Capgemini employs 340,000 people across more than 50 countries. The firm provides services in strategy, design and engineering, combining artificial intelligence, cloud computing and data analytics with industry-specific knowledge.
