Fast-growing fintech player in the French profit-sharing and retirement savings markets
Eres (“the Company”) is a leading French financial technology player within employee profit sharing and retirement savings. The Company focuses on the fragmented and high growth small to medium-sized enterprise segment, covering the design, implementation, monitoring and management of savings products. It addresses the market both indirectly through a large network of independent distributors and directly for larger clients.
IK Partners acquired a majority stake in Eres from the management team and Parquest Capital in July 2019.
