Global technology platform InvestCloud announced Wednesday it is acquiring financial planning software developer Advicent and its NaviPlan platform in a move that could position the firm to rival wealthtech powerhouses like Envestnet.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed. The acquisition comes as market volatility has accelerated a focus on financial planning — a market worth $52.9 billion in the U.S. alone, and one that’s predicted to grow 3.5% in 2021, according to the announcement.
