The company

Global Reach Group helps over 1,500 clients manage their cross-border payments and foreign exchange exposure through a range of product solutions which are tied to fundamental business needs. The firm offers corporate payment solutions in more than 80 currencies and nearly 200 countries.

The Inflexion investment

Inflexion invested in Global Reach Group in March 2016. Since then, the business has been significantly transformed into a high-quality and international platform capable of scaling rapidly.

The Inflexion difference

Inflexion used their internationalisation and M&A expertise to support the international expansion of the business, including the acquisitions of the assets of EncoreFX, a Canadian corporate cross-border payments business and FC Exchange, an international money transfer and payment solutions provider, together with the opening of offices in Amsterdam and Madrid.

Inflexion’s experience in M&A and internationalisation was key for Global Reach Group, and has helped to grow it into the high quality and international platform that it is today. We have built a strong foundation and are excited about the next chapter with our new owners.

Nicholas Fullerton, CEO, Global Reach Group
