RISMA, ComplyCloud, and Wired Relations have been acquired by the private equity firm Triple Private Equity. The three companies will merge to form a unified entity with the goal of becoming the leading Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) platform in the Nordics.
For Lars Nybro Munksgaard, the CEO and founder of RISMA, the acquisition represents a natural progression in a journey that started 11 years ago from a home office in Frederiksberg. This acquisition marks the beginning of a new chapter for the company, as the partnership with Triple Private Equity opens up new opportunities.
"We are about to embark on a journey together that none of us could accomplish alone. By partnering with Triple Private Equity, we gain invaluable expertise in international expansion. While we have certainly gained experience from our efforts in Norway and Sweden, Triple's capabilities will allow us to elevate our ambitions to the next level," says Lars Nybro Munksgaard."
A unified GRC platform
The new chapter for RISMA began when Triple Private Equity expressed interest in the company. This wasn't a superficial inquiry; they had thoroughly researched the business, and their vision was clear: to establish the leading Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) platform in the Nordics. This was the same vision that Munksgaard had when he founded the company in 2014.
"I’m excited about the challenge of uniting three strong players into the leading GRC platform in the Nordics. It’s the kind of opportunity every CEO dreams of," says Munksgaard.
The acquisition is creating new opportunities in various markets and for different customers. A strong foundation has been laid to strengthen the position in the Nordic market. This step is not just about growth but about combining expertise, products, and market access into one unified solution.
"Together with Triple Private Equity, we are stronger and prepared to provide an even better platform for our customers," Munksgaard concludes.
