The story

Founded in 2003 as Web Services Integration Ltd, Xceptor built a data automation platform purpose-built for capital markets operations. The company expanded from basic data transformation into a broader suite covering tax processing, reconciliations, and post-trade operations. Acquired by Astorg private equity, Xceptor now serves over 100 financial institution clients across 60 countries with enterprise-grade automation for trade lifecycle management. Its embedded finance angle is narrow — the platform is sold to banks and asset managers rather than embedding financial products itself.
