Dolfin believes that the transaction will help expand and diversify its client base considerably by adding around 300 new wealth management accounts to the business, with an additional $800m of client assets bringing the total of Dolfin’s client assets to more than $3b, the press statement says.

With the transaction going through, Falcon Private Wealth’s staff of 14 is joining the Dolfin team.

“The successful completion of this deal is important for two reasons. Firstly, it adds scale in terms of high-quality clients and wealth managers, in line with our international and emerging market strategy. Secondly, it demonstrates the huge appeal of our platform to demanding private clients and their advisers from many different parts of the world and – crucially – that, after six years in business, we have the management and execution capability to take on substantial new business despite the operational complexity involved,” says Denis Nagy, CEO at Dolfin.

“In my mind, this cements Dolfin’s position as one of London’s fastest-growing wealth management platforms, the natural partner for clients and private bankers who want to get things done. We look forward to welcoming our new team members, and to offer our new clients both continuity in excellent relationship management and an enhanced range of services,” the CEO adds.

“This is the third customer agreement we sign where the counter-party is expected to have a significant presence in the Indian market that is growing strongly. Cricket is a huge sport locally, and I am excited about continuing to grow the liquidity network we have established. Further on this means larger prize pools and a more attractive product,” says Andreas Ternström, CEO at Scout Gaming.

“We see how Fantasy Sports has strong growth in the country. With players like Dream11 who are extremely popular at the forefront, we have explored the possibilities of expanding our value chain to operator business focusing exclusively on fantasy sports. After that scan of the market, Scout Gaming came across as the most competitive player, having established a global liquidity network with access to both popular local sports such as Cricket and Kabaddi, but also international leagues such as Premier League are something we believe will be winning in the long run,” adds Harshit Mehta, CEO of Indiabet.com.

Sports Gaming UK which owns Indiabet.com holds a stake in Scoring 11 (Playsafe Games Pvt Ltd). IndiaBet is run by Harshit Mehta in India and he owns majority shares in Playsafe Games Pvt Ltd. Indiabet.com is originally an affiliate focusing on the Indian market. Scout Gaming’s products are expected to be launched during the year. Scoring 11 is also likely to be part of Scout Gaming’s global liquidity network. Fantasy Sports is considered a skill game in India and is thus entirely legal.

The group has approximately 70 staff and is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden with development and operations in Bergen, Norway and Lviv, Ukraine. Sales, support and product management is handled from the office in Malta.
