Alkami Technology, a Texas-based digital banking software provider, has initiated a sale process following acquisition interest prompted by activist investor Jana Partners, who holds a 5.1% stake and has pushed for a sale to strategic or private equity buyers. The company's market value is about $2 billion, but its shares have declined due to slowing growth and tougher fintech spending.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Control shifts in digital banking software are opening up new acquisition opportunities. You need to explore potential strategic or private equity partnerships this quarter before buyers narrow their focus.
