Insurance technology provider Sapiens International has agreed to purchase Cálculo, a seller of insurance consulting and managed services, for an undisclosed sum.
The deal will pave ways for Sapiens to foray into Spanish and Portuguese markets.
Founded in 1966, Cálculo has a team of more than 150 insurance experts and serves 25 insurance companies in Spain.
Sapiens said that it will continue to invest in Calculo’s product line ups, such as the e-Tica core system and other solutions even after the acquisition.
Commenting on the deal, Sapiens president and CEO Roni Al-Dor said: “This acquisition was a relatively simple decision, as it is expected to accelerate our global footprint by helping us enter the sizeable Iberian market.
“It checks all the boxes of our M&A growth strategy: it enables us to expand geographically, grows our customer base, and adds a talented team of experts, as well as complementary capabilities and services to our portfolio.”
