Foot Anstey advises Delinian on strategic divestment of three market‑leading data businesses

National law firm Foot Anstey has continued to advise Delinian, a leading owner and operator of specialist information businesses, on the divestment of Derivia Intelligence, Extel and Euromoney to Triple Private Equity, completed through three separate transactions.

The divestments reflect Delinian’s disciplined approach to portfolio management, creating focused, investable businesses that are well positioned for their next phase of growth under new ownership.

Each of the three companies operates as a standalone market leader within its respective sector, serving global financial institutions with mission‑critical data and benchmarking solutions.

• Derivia Intelligence delivers complex financial market data and insights using proprietary sourcing methods and advanced technologies.
• Extel provides independent perception analytics and competitor benchmarking across global capital markets.
• Euromoney is a long‑established global benchmarking and intelligence business for the banking industry, with its certifications widely recognised as the most prestigious endorsements in the sector.

The acquisitions by Triple Private Equity’s strengthen its position as a growth‑focused private equity firm, which specialises in B2B software and data businesses across financial infrastructure and governance, risk and compliance.

The Foot Anstey team was led by Corporate Partner Chris Worrell, supported by Senior Associates Beth Donnelly and Rebecca Minear, and Associates Tom Bradley and Megan Bingley. Additional specialist support was provided by Partner Matt Spencer (Tax), Partner Ashley Avery and Associate Beth Barrow (Commercial), and Principal Director Nathalie Ingles (Employment).

Chris commented: “We are delighted to continue to support Delinian with these three strategically important disposals, which highlight the strength and momentum of its portfolio and the disciplined execution of its invest‑and‑divest strategy. We value Delinian’s continued confidence in our team as a trusted adviser to active private equity portfolios and strategic corporates, delivering successful outcomes across high value, complex multi-jurisdiction transactions.”

Nina Best, General Counsel at Delinian said: "We are delighted to see Derivia Intelligence, Extel and Euromoney transition to new ownership, each well‑positioned for their next phase of growth. We greatly valued Foot Anstey’s strategic and highly commercial support in helping us execute these transactions efficiently across an active portfolio."
