Next-gen core banking leader Tuum bags €25m in Series B investment
The round witnessed leadership from CommerzVentures, accompanied by contributions from Speedinvest and several returning investors.
The company, renowned for its groundbreaking approach to banking technology, has been on a rapid growth trajectory since its first client partnership in February 2019. Tuum stands at the forefront of digital transformation in the banking sector, offering flexible, cost-effective systems that liberate banks to innovate, develop new products, and penetrate fresh markets.
Boasting a diverse customer base across 10 countries, with a significant footprint in the UK and the Nordics, Tuum’s financial performance has been stellar, showcasing a compound annual growth rate exceeding 250% over the last three years.
The newly secured funds are earmarked for an ambitious expansion plan. Tuum aims to strengthen its international presence, targeting pivotal markets in the DACH region, Southern Europe, and the Middle East, including the establishment of a new office.
Additionally, the investment will enable Tuum to bolster its direct sales and marketing efforts and fortify its partner channel.
Reflecting on the funding round, Tuum CEO Myles Bertrand shared his vision, stating, “I joined Tuum in the summer of last year because I saw the gap in the market for its proposition. Everyone knows that banks need to replace their aging core banking systems if they are going to successfully adapt their business models for digital banking.
“However, no core banking vendor has to date made core migration simple and predictable, which is what Tuum is now doing through a combination of smart migrations, a modular and functionality rich core, massive extensibility, and a broad ecosystem of partners.”
