About
Inflexion’s Partnership Capital fund made a strategic investment alongside Allen & Overy (A&O) and US-based investor Endicott Capital to carve out legal and compliance data subscription platform aosphere from incumbent parent A&O.
aosphere serves over 725 blue-chip clients including banks, asset managers and corporates, providing online legal analysis on a subscription basis across a range of key compliance topics in complex areas such as financial derivatives, shareholder disclosure requirements, cross-border marketing, and data privacy. The platform creates efficiencies for users by providing standardised legal analysis on complex and multi-jurisdictional regulatory areas, maintaining up-to-date, high-quality information working with local counsel across the globe.
Value acceleration
The investment is supporting an independent aosphere to create a scaled, global regulatory information business across a range of cross-jurisdictional topics. M&A is helping aosphere to enter new verticals and geographies, with the acquisition of Switzerland-based BRP Bizzozero bringing aosphere into the private banking and wealth management space, and the purchase of Investment Navigator in 2025 accelerating its development of digitally-driven cross-border compliance solutions. The business is also leveraging AI to improve its offering, with Inflexion’s value acceleration team supporting the efforts.
