Accenture (NYSE:ACN) has reached an agreement to acquire Cabel Industry from the Fibonacci Group, a move designed to cement its role as a primary technology partner for Italy’s mid-sized financial sector.
The deal marks Accenture’s eighth strategic acquisition in the country since 2023, signaling a concentrated effort to capture market share in a region undergoing rapid digital transformation.
Based in Empoli, Cabel Industry specializes in core banking software and IT infrastructure management.
The firm will be integrated into Accenture Financial Advanced Solutions & Technology (AFAST), a dedicated hub for Italian financial services.
By onboarding approximately 200 skilled professionals from Cabel, Accenture aims to scale its ability to provide credit management and specialized back-end IT solutions for institutions that lack the scale of global banking giants.
While the financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, the transaction is expected to follow Accenture's standard bolt-on acquisition model.
The completion of the deal remains subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory nods in the Italian market.
