SS&C Makes Approach to Acquire London-Based Automation Specialist Blue Prism

SS&C Technologies has made a preliminary approach to Blue Prism Group regarding a possible cash offer to acquire the entire issued and to-be-issued share capital of the company. London-based Blue Prism is a global leader in enterprise intelligent automation. “Automation has been at the forefront of SS&C’s technology initiatives for several years now,” says Bill Stone, chairman and CEO of SS&C Technologies. “Blue Prism’s innovative solutions are recognised as a leader by robotic process automation analysts, and we believe the company would complement our existing products, particularly Chorus, our intelligent automation solution.”
