Lyon-based Agicap, a treasury management platform, announced on raises €45million in a series C round funding. The round led by AVP will enable Agicap to further consolidate its leadership position in Europe as it scales to become the global reference in the midmarket treasury management space.

SUMMARY

  • Lyon-based Agicap, a treasury management platform, announced on raises €45million in a series C round funding.
  • Founded in 2016, Agicap is at the forefront of cash management innovation, with a next-gen treasury management solution integrating Banking & ERP connectivity, Cash Management, Liquidity Planning, Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable and Spend Management.

Since its inception, it has emerged as the leading treasury management platform for SMB and midmarket companies, the driving force of their economy. It provides the C-suite and finance teams with flexible and real-time visibility into current, historical and projected cash flow data, alongside a comprehensive, end-to-end suite of treasury management tools.

Cash management and forecasting have become top priorities for CFOs navigating increasingly uncertain macroeconomic conditions. Yet, it’s recent survey (in partnership with Innofact) of 500 European CFOs revealed that 80% of midmarket firms still rely on Excel-based processes to manage and forecast their cash positions – a manual, time-consuming task with only 41% conducting long-term cash forecasts.

Clément Mauguet, Co-founder & Chief Expansion Officer, Agicap said, “In today’s economic conditions, the importance of cash management is paramount. Mid-market organizations have reached a level of complexity that makes it challenging for them to properly manage and optimize their cash strategy, given the need to track countless incoming and outgoing cash flows across multiple entities with numerous bank accounts and currencies. Agicap automates this entire process, offering critical insights in just minutes.”

It empowers more than 8,000 companies by simplifying the consolidation of cash flow data through unique and direct bank connectivity (via local protocols, an extensive network of real-time APIs and Swift) as well as integration with ERPs, finance and other business enablement tools.

Sébastien Beyet, Co-founder & CEO, Agicap said, “Midmarket companies lose an average of €450k annually on overdraft fees and financial income due to inefficient cash management. Agicap’s purpose is to bring this figure close to zero.”

Agicap will use the Series C funds to continue investing in its product, people, and growth initiatives.
