Bedell Cristin has advised financial marketplace ClearScore on its acquisition of finance and credit broking platform, Aro Finance.
The Bedell Cristin team was led by Global Managing Partner Tim Pearce and Head of Corporate Guy Westmacott, supported by senior associate Philip Kendall, working with lead counsel Marriott Harrison.
ClearScore has over 24 million users around the world, and offers a platform for financial data, credit reports and Open Banking data.
Fintech Aro Finance, which counts Argos and Asda among its partners, operates a credit marketplace proposition embedded within affinity partners’ digital infrastructure.
Tim Pearce said: "We are delighted to have worked with the team at Marriott Harrison on this transaction, which cements ClearScore's leading market position. This matter also shows how Jersey as a jurisdiction is a compelling proposition for fintech providers, particularly those with a global client base."
