Cerby raises $54M to secure enterprise apps lacking SSO support

Cerby has raised $54 million in Series B funding from investors including Deloitte Ventures, Engage Fund, Squarepoint and Valor to address enterprise security challenges posed by disconnected applications. The platform automates identity management for applications lacking SSO or SCIM support. The company reported 130% year-over-year ARR growth and tripled its six-figure accounts, with a 130% net revenue retention rate. Cerby has appointed new executives including Ernie Tkac as chief revenue officer and Manny Ataebi as chief marketing officer, whilst launching the Vanguard Partner Programme. The platform bridges the gap between modern identity protocols and legacy or niche applications by wrapping security controls around apps not built for them, enabling automated provisioning, MFA enforcement and centralised access management across enterprise environments.

ADNOC taps industry veteran to lead trading arm expansion.

ADNOC taps industry veteran to lead trading arm expansion. Archie Hunter, Sherry Su and Rakteem Katakey June 16, 2026 (Bloomberg) - Abu Dhabi National Oil Co has hired commodities veteran Benoit Roulon to head up its trading arm, part of the long-term expansion plan at the Middle Eastern producer which quit OPEC last month. Roulon is set to join ADNOC Trading from his previous role at Squarepoint Capital, where he had been leading a push into physical oil since the start of this year, according to people familiar with the matter, who asked not to be named citing confidential plans. ADNOC declined to comment. Roulon did not respond to a request for comment. Abu Dhabi's five year-old oil trading arm is undergoing a major international expansion. It plans to boost the volume it handles by two-thirds in the next few years to as much as 2 MMbpd, Chief Executive Officer Ahmed Bin Thalith told Bloomberg News in November. That's happening as the United Arab Emirates, which was OPEC's third-largest producer after Saudi Arabia and Iraq, targets 5 MMbpd of oil production capacity, compared with output levels of about 3.6 MMbpd earlier this year. The near-closure of the Strait of Hormuz due to the war between the U.S., Israel and Iran has curbed production in the UAE and other major Persian Gulf producers in recent months. Through the crisis, Adnoc has been one of the most active shippers, often using smaller tankers to shuttle crude out of the strait. This export flow could be boosted by a potential agreement this week between the U.S. and Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Before joining Squarepoint, Roulon was head of crude oil trading for Gunvor SA, after a 21-year career at TotalEnergies SA where he held managerial roles in the U.S. and Singapore. Recently ADNOC opened an office for its trading business in Geneva and has plans to expand to Houston in 2027.

Daloopa raises $47 million Series C to power the data layer behind ai-driven finance.

Daloopa raises $47 million Series C to power the data layer behind ai-driven finance. * Fundraising News * 29.05.2026 12:43 pm Daloopa, the essential data infrastructure for AI and agentic workflows in finance, today announced it has raised $47 million in Series C funding led by Brighton Park Capital, with participation from Squarepoint Capital, Touring Capital, and Nexus Venture Partners. This funding will accelerate Daloopa's platform growth as investment firms increasingly move AI systems from experimentation into production workflows, where accuracy and reliability are non-negotiable - and expand the company's team across engineering, product, and go-to-market. As AI agents power financial workflows, the limiting factor is whether the systems are grounded in reliable data. In high-stakes use cases like valuation, earnings analysis, and portfolio modeling, even small inconsistencies such as misaligned fiscal calendars or inconsistent metric definitions can significantly impact outcomes. Before structured data infrastructure, analysts were forced to spend hours manually collecting and entering data from company filings, and validating whether each datapoint was correct. AI tools also face a data accuracy problem as most rely on web-sourced inputs that are not standardized or source-linked, inheriting those inconsistencies and producing outputs that are often unreliable. Daloopa addresses this by providing structured, source-linked financial data that investors can reliably use. The platform now covers over 5,500 public companies globally, delivers up to 10 times more data points per company than other providers, and each datapoint is linked to its original source for auditability. Investment firms trust Daloopa to power workflows ranging from quarterly analysis and scenario modeling to AI-assisted research and reporting. "We're seeing firms move from early experimentation toward deploying AI in real investment workflows, and that changes the requirements entirely," said Thomas Li, CEO of Daloopa. "It's no longer enough for models to simply generate answers; they must be accurate and fully traceable. Our focus is on building the data infrastructure that makes that possible, so firms can trust what AI is producing." The funding follows a series of recent product and partnership milestones that position Daloopa at the center of the emerging AI investment research stack. The company recently: * Expanded access to its data through MCP connectors with OpenAI's ChatGPT, Anthropic's Claude, Perplexity, and Rogo - bringing structured financial data directly into the tools analysts already use * Published a benchmark study showing AI agent accuracy improved up to 71 percentage points, when grounded in structured, auditable financial data versus web-based retrieval * Added new platform capabilities, including programmatic access via API, as well as cloud-native delivery via Snowflake, Databricks, and AWS S3. Daloopa is also introducing a Partner API, unlocking third party product use cases. The new offering enables select partners and startup developers to leverage best-in-class financial data to build AI workflows and to reference within their product suite. Together, these developments underscore a broader shift in the market: the bottleneck in AI-driven finance is not model intelligence, but data infrastructure. "Daloopa is solving one of the most consequential data challenges in financial services," said Tim Drager, Partner at Brighton Park Capital. "As AI becomes embedded in financial decision-making and core investment workflows, the firms that succeed will be those with the strongest data foundations. Daloopa has built exactly that and is already trusted by over 160 financial institutions, which speaks to both the quality of the platform and the urgency of this problem. We are thrilled to partner with Thomas and the team as they continue to define this category." Brighton Park Capital was supported by Special Advisor, Phil Hadley, former CEO and Chairman of Factset in their evaluation of Daloopa. That momentum is also reflected in how investment firms are engaging with Daloopa. A growing number of customers are already using the platform to operationalize AI in production workflows, and in some cases, firsthand experience with the technology has also led to investment conviction. The company has also continued to scale rapidly, doubling revenue over the past year while expanding coverage and deepening integrations across the AI ecosystem. As firms push toward greater automation, Daloopa is becoming a core part of the infrastructure that enables AI and agentic workflows in financial services.
