About the Company
Misys and D+H joined forces in June 2017 to create a diversified global financial software provider, operating under the new company name, Finastra (previously Misys). The combination has created the third largest financial services technology company in the world. The company has approximately 8,000 employees and over 9,000 customers across 130 countries, including 48 of the top 50 banks globally.
