On this occasion, Baker Tilly has advised the acquiring party in what has been its first investment in Spain in a sector we are already familiar with: human capital management and payroll software.
Given the fragmentation of the human capital management and payroll landscape in Spain, Accel-KKR, is looking for targets of M&A activities complementary and consolidation mainly in Spain.Possible fits include consolidation in the human capital management space, payroll oriented software and services, and learning management software for employee training.
