Macquarie Capital Private Equity Investment Europe

    Business Keeper

    Company background

    Business Keeper developed the first digital whistleblowing system in Europe. It is a scalable, secure and certified web-based compliance software solution platform for incident reporting, third party due diligence and business approval.

    What attracted us

    • Scalable and strongly growing software business that will benefit from regulatory tailwinds
    • Highly recurring revenues and low customer churn
    • Accelerate revenue growth through improved go-to-market strategy (incl. indirect channel)
    • M&A consolidation to create a broader pan-European compliance solution provider

    Our value creation strategy

    • Continue German expansion through organic growth within enterprise as well as SME segments through sales team consolidation
    • Appointment of a new CEO and build-out of the management team
    • Reached agreement to sell down 100 per cent of Macquarie’s holding in Business Keeper to EQS Group
