European FinTech Private & Growth Equity Landscape – 4th Edition

Published: June 2022

With the lifting of final restrictions in February of this year the UK became the first country in Europe to officially enter the post-Covid landscape. And although this situation differs throughout Europe, we felt this a suitable moment for publication of the fourth edition of our European FinTech Private Equity Landscape, tracking private and growth equity holdings within the European FinTech sector.

As a result of the longer than usual gap between editions, a more comprehensive methodology and a relentlessly busy FinTech market, this now bulging fourth edition adds a further 208 acquisitions or funding rounds which brings the total number of transactions to 383. In a clear demonstration of the depth and breadth of the European FinTech market, these deals involve 328 FinTech companies, from 22 countries, and 518 lead investments by 260 different investors.
