The story
Founded in 1984 as Hanse Orga Group, Serrala spent its first three decades as a deep SAP financial software specialist. It rebranded to Serrala around 2018 to pursue a broader international market for finance process automation across AR, AP, payments, and treasury. Backed by Hg capital, Serrala has since evolved from point-solution provider to a unified, AI-powered Finance Platform targeting enterprise CFO offices globally, with Agentic AI now central to its product positioning.
