Omnio has been expanding commercially after striking multiple BaaS deals with clients in the UK and Italy across travel, transport, sports and entertainment sectors. The company is due to merge with Nordiska and Swiss Bankers and will operate under the Nordiska Financial Solutions banner following that deal. Management is pursuing an IPO roadmap for the BaaS business and a public listing is anticipated at some stage this year.

The company’s solution supports accounts of record through to regulatory reporting, enabling smaller financial institutions and non-regulated enterprises to embed or outsource banking capabilities. Omnio said it will scale its offerings across the UK and Europe. To support that expansion it announced a €30m pre-IPO convertible bond funding round led by GrayBella Capital.
