Alcumus is a global leader in technology-led risk management and compliance solutions, helping organisations of all sizes anticipate, manage, and avoid risks.

Identifying an opportunity to invest in the attractive and fragmented Environment, Health and Safety (“EHS”) services sector, which the Funds have tracked for several years, Apax X acquired Alcumus.

The investment thesis centred on partnering with Alcumus’s management team to support the company in capitalising on long-term secular growth and consolidation in the market.
