Digital fraud detection company BioCatch has a new majority shareholder in the form of U.K private equity firm Permira.

The company has raised well over $200 million to date, including tranches from financial giants such as American Express, HSBC, Barclays, Citi and National Australia Bank. “We have tracked BioCatch with enthusiasm for many years, and now having been a shareholder since early 2023, our conviction in the business, its growth potential, its technology leadership, and its management team continues to grow.”
