Despite a significant downturn in the broader European WealthTech market, the United Kingdom firmly established its position as the continent’s dominant hub for investment in 2025, securing nearly half of all deals. While overall activity declined sharply, a landmark $40 million strategic growth investment in London-based Coremont highlighted the ongoing demand for advanced financial technology solutions.
European WealthTech Investment Faces Steep Decline in 2025
The European WealthTech sector experienced a substantial contraction throughout 2025, with both the volume of deals and the total capital invested plummeting from already subdued levels recorded in the previous year. The market registered a mere 158 deals, marking a 59% year-over-year decrease from the 381 transactions completed in 2024. This figure represents a staggering 92% plunge compared to the peak of 2,064 deals observed in 2021.
Funding also saw a significant reduction, with total investments falling to $2.9 billion. This was a 36% drop from the $4.5 billion raised in 2024 and an 84% decline from the $18 billion invested during 2021. This sustained weakening of investor confidence underscores the persistent challenges and market uncertainties impacting the European WealthTech ecosystem.
UK Solidifies Position as Europe’s Leading WealthTech Hub
In a contracting market, the United Kingdom not only maintained but strengthened its lead in European WealthTech. UK-based companies were involved in 74 deals, accounting for an impressive 47% share of all European transactions in 2025. Although this represents a 39% decrease from the 121 deals (32% share) in 2024, the UK’s increased market share signifies a growing concentration of investment within its borders.
France emerged as the second most active market, recording 19 deals (12% share), a 50% drop from 38 deals in the prior year. The Netherlands stepped up as the third most active, securing 11 deals (7% share), thereby displacing Germany, which had been a significant player with 46 deals (12% share) in 2024. The data suggests that as overall European WealthTech activity diminishes, investment is increasingly gravitating towards a select few established core markets, with the UK at the forefront.
Coremont Secures Major $40M Investment to Fuel Growth
A notable highlight in the 2025 European WealthTech landscape was the $40 million strategic growth investment secured by Coremont. The London-headquartered firm, a leading provider of real-time, multi-asset class portfolio management software and analytics for asset managers, hedge funds, and financial institutions, received funding from funds managed by Blue Owl Capital, which oversees $295 billion in assets under management.
This significant investment underscores Coremont’s crucial role in providing cloud-native alternatives to legacy portfolio management systems, especially as market volatility intensifies the need for real-time risk analytics, advanced derivatives modeling, and scalable data integration for buy-side firms. Coremont’s robust platform delivers live portfolio monitoring, stress testing, and scenario analysis across various asset classes including fixed income, equities, currencies, and commodities. Its intuitive user interfaces combined with powerful API connectivity enable increasingly complex investment strategies.
The new capital is earmarked for expanding Coremont’s product coverage into emerging asset classes and alternative strategies, integrating AI-driven analytics and natural-language tools for investment teams, and further enhancing its real-time risk management capabilities. This strategic funding is set to support Coremont’s continued growth across Europe and globally, as wealth and asset managers prioritize the modernization of their technology infrastructure.
