Tabula Investment Management has been acquired by Janus Henderson Group plc

May 2024 — Tabula Investment Management has been sold to Janus Henderson Group plc. The deal builds on Janus Henderson’s extremely successful active fixed income ETF proposition in the US, where it is the fourth largest provider of active fixed income ETFs by assets under management. The transaction is expected to complete in the second quarter of 2024, subject to usual closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.

Established in 2018, Tabula is the leading independent ETF provider in Europe with an existing focus on fixed income and sustainable investment solutions. Tabula has built an institutional-grade investment management and ETF business with over US$500 million in assets under management and funds listed across ten European exchanges, serving clients in 15 countries.

Janus Henderson is a global asset management group headquartered in the City of London, UK. It offers a range of financial products to individuals, intermediary advisors and institutional investors globally. Partnering with Tabula enables Janus Henderson to respond to client demand globally for its investment strategies to include a UCITS ETF wrapper which is the most ubiquitous ETF structure outside of the US.

Moneybox’s employee share sale has set another milestone for London’s Private Securities Market

The London Stock Exchange’s Private Securities Market (PSM) continues to demonstrate its potential as a venue for providing shareholder liquidity in high-growth private companies.

By structuring the transaction as an employee liquidity event, long-serving employees with vested equity have been able to realize some of the value they helped create while enabling Moneybox to remain private and continue its growth journey.
