London Stock Exchange Group agrees to buy Octus from Permira for $3.5 billion. Published on 10/22/2026 at 02:55 am EDT By Dominic Chopping London Stock Exchange Group said it has agreed to acquire credit intelligence, data and workflow provider Octus from Permira and management for $3.54 billion. The stock-exchange and financial-information company said last week that it was in talks over the deal. "The acquisition will transform LSEG's presence in credit and private markets data, creating a leading proposition in these high-growth areas," it said Thursday. Separately, the company said it has raised its full-year revenue, margin and free cash flow guidance "following the continued strength of our business in Q3." The company now expects to report organic constant currency growth in total income excluding recoveries of at least 8.0%, from 7.0% to 7.5% previously, noting an acceleration of organic growth in its subscription businesses and continued strong growth in its markets division. The earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization margin this year is now expected to grow by 100 to 120 basis points at constant currency, having previously expected an improvement of around 100 basis points. Equity free cash flow of at least 2.8 billion pounds ($3.75 billion) is expected this year, up from previous guidance of 2.7 billion pounds.

Under the stewardship of JTC's exceptional management team, the business has already established itself as one of the fastest-growing global FACTS platforms, combining sustained double-digit organic growth with a disciplined acquisition strategy that has successfully expanded both its capabilities and international footprint. JTC's Institutional Capital Services and Private Capital Services businesses position the company at the centre of long-term structural growth across private capital and global wealth management. Building on its long history in Europe, JTC has over the last few years established a unique leadership position in US trust services and is becoming critical infrastructure globally for family offices, wealth managers and financial institutions supporting the multi-decade intergenerational transfer of wealth. Alongside continued demand for specialist fund administration, these structural trends provide a significant long-term runway for growth.

With Permira's backing, we're excited to accelerate that strategy further - investing in our people, next-generation technology and AI capabilities, while continuing to pursue strategic acquisitions, with a particular focus on North America and Europe. "The long-term opportunity in the US is particularly exciting. We see significant potential to continue building our leadership position in trust services and to expand our fund, corporate and employer solutions businesses as demand continues to grow. "Permira values our culture of shared ownership, which will remain firmly at the heart of what makes JTC a special and unique business. As we look ahead, our focus is on building an even stronger, more innovative JTC for the benefit of our clients, colleagues and all our stakeholders."

"JTC is well positioned to benefit from powerful structural tailwinds, including the growth in global demand for Alternatives and in the US the largest intergenerational transfer of wealth in history. This, combined with JTC's leading proposition, exceptional management, shared ownership culture and access to long-term capital, creates an outstanding opportunity to build one of the world's leading FACTS platforms."
