Rami Cassis's Parabellum Investments has acquired Crux Informatics, the San Francisco external-data automation platform whose pipelines feed market data into the models run by Goldman Sachs, Two Sigma and other institutional desks. The deal, announced on 30 June 2026, puts a profitable, AI-native data-infrastructure business inside a family office that has spent more than a decade buying and scaling enterprise software. Terms were not disclosed. For a buyer whose stated edge

Corgi raises $108M to insure startups. FloodFlash sensors land on the eighteenth green. And 95% of Q1 funding flowed to AI. Welcome to the quarter insurance stopped talking about AI and started running on it. Walk into any insurance carrier's strategy offsite in June 2026 and you'll hear a phrase that would have sounded ridiculous five years ago: "AI isn't a roadmap item, it's the carrier." That's not marketing froth. It's the natural consequence of a funding pattern that has

The European Investment Bank has issued a €77.5 million distributed-ledger commercial paper on Clearstream's D7 platform, the first DLT-native commercial paper on the system and an early test of whether tokenized securities can function as central-bank collateral rather than sit on the sidelines as a novelty. The euro-denominated paper, distributed into the international Eurobond market with a 10-business-day tenor, was placed by Citi as sole dealer and issuing and paying age

Bullish, the NYSE-listed digital asset platform, has secured approval from the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission (GFSC) to offer trading in tokenized securities, making the exchange one of the first regulated venues anywhere cleared to host secondary trading in issuer-sponsored security tokens.

The week Morgan Stanley invited the machines in, Arca emerged from stealth with a billion dollars in client assets, and tokenized private equity stopped sounding like a pitch deck. If you blinked this week, you missed wealth management quietly turning a corner that planners, RIAs, and Wall Street giants have been edging toward for the better part of three years. The shift wasn't loud, there was no IPO bell, no exchange listing, no executive in a vest doing a TED-style walk. I

Tabby has secured consumer finance and SME finance licences from the Saudi Central Bank (SAMA), clearing the way for the MENA region's most valuable fintech to fund purchases of up to SAR 50,000 across as many as 12 monthly instalments and to extend working capital to merchants on its platform. The approvals push the company decisively beyond the short-tenor, low-ticket buy now, pay later model that built its 25 million-strong user base, and toward the broader credit institut

All 24 affiliated banks of Switzerland's ESPRIT Network are now running on a single mobile and e-banking platform after the final migration wave completed at the end of May 2026. The 21-month programme, built on ti&m's ti&m Banking solution and started in September 2024, turns a federation of independent regional institutions into one of the most widely deployed digital banking front ends in the country. For finance professionals, the more telling signal is structural: a clus
