Eraneos acquires abaQon to expand financial services consulting and strengthen Swiss market presence.

Eraneos, an international management and technology consulting firm, has acquired abaQon, a Swiss consulting company focused on banking and financial services. The agreement improves Eraneos' standing in the banking industry and adds about 30 consultants to its staff in Switzerland. Founded in 2025, abaQon is a boutique consultancy that helps banks and financial institutions with digital transformation projects. Its services include modernising core banking systems, using data analytics, process mining, IT architecture, compliance, and introducing technologies like generative AI.

According to Adrian Anderegg, a partner at Eraneos, the acquisition helps the company achieve its objective of expanding its staff of financial services consultants. He noted that abaQon’s strong technical expertise fits well with Eraneos’ existing services and will help clients manage complex change more effectively. This move follows earlier acquisitions by Eraneos to expand its financial services offerings. These include DCP and W21 in Germany and sevenQ in Switzerland. The company is aiming to become a leading transformation partner for financial firms across Europe.

AbaQon’s co-founders, Manuel Dubler and Philippe Vanin, said joining Eraneos is an important step forward. They think the cooperation will allow them to provide customers with more thorough, combined solutions while maintaining the company's founding principles and methodology. Since its founding in 2021 as a result of the combination of three companies, Eraneos has expanded steadily. It currently employs 1,200 people in ten countries, including the United States, Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands. The company provides corporate consultancy, IT strategy, and digital transformation services. The continued trend of alliance in the consulting sector is exemplified by this transaction, as firms seek to extend their skills and pool their experience in order to satisfy the increasing expectations of their clients in the digital and financial reform space.
