Enfusion Team,
I hope this finds each of you doing well in the new year. Today, I am writing with some important news. As you may have seen, Enfusion just issued a press release announcing that we have entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Clearwater Analytics (NYSE: CWAN).
As is our commitment to each of you always - we are committed to a timely, consistent, and clear communication process. Later today, we will discuss this news with you in two virtual All Hands meetings. These will take place at 10:00 AM ET and 10:30 PM ET to accommodate different time zones. You will receive calendar invitations for both meetings shortly. Please attend the meeting that best works for your schedule as the presentations will be the same. We realize this is short notice, but we want you to hear from the Executive Committee directly on this important news as soon as possible. Please plan on attending one of these two meetings, as they will not be recorded. If you are unable to make either meeting, please be assured that you will continue to hear directly from leadership frequently as things progress.
Announcement details
Clearwater Analytics (Clearwater) is a leading provider of SaaS-based investment management, accounting, reporting, and analytics solutions. Their clients include some of the largest institutions in the world across the insurance, asset management and asset owner industries. They have an enviable track record of growing very consistently powered by very high client satisfaction, as evidenced by their gross revenue retention of 99% and net revenue retention of 114%. Most importantly, they have been on a similar journey as us in terms of technology and architecture.
Clearwater views Enfusion as an attractive investment opportunity because of Clearwater’s alignment with our business strategy, due to our leading technology platform, large global client base, strong financial profile, and of course, our world-class talent. They are confident in our team’s ability to drive continued growth and believe that our culture and values closely align. This acquisition brings together two industry leaders with a common vision for redefining technology and services across the investment management industry. We share a strong commitment to our values, continued investment in modern technology, and excellence in client services, which we believe will continue to build on our differentiation in the competitive landscape.
During the upcoming All Hands meetings, we will share more about the process that brought us to this point. It is important to note that this transaction closing is expected to occur in Q2 2025, and each company will operate independently until then. During this time, we should not allow this development to distract us from our day-to-day responsibilities. We must remain focused on taking care of our people and serving our clients. Our focus on the same values that brought us to this point must remain our north star moving forward.
Before I outline what comes next regarding this exciting opportunity, I want to take a moment to recognize all that we have achieved leading up to this point and to extend enormous gratitude to each of you. Thank you for your unwavering dedication, passion, and OneEnfusion mindset. I know that we will bring this incredible commitment into our next chapter.
What’s next
Many of you may be thinking about the specific next steps and implications this news will have on you and your colleagues – which is completely understandable. Our commitment is to provide you with transparent and timely information. As a first step, please attend one of today’s All Hands meetings. An announcement FAQ document is also attached to this email and will be posted to the Intranet for reference. As with any acquisition, we will be in a position to answer some of your questions now and the remainder as things progress. We remain committed to communicating information on a rolling basis and as soon as possible.
We have also created a dedicated questions form, which you can find linked here. We will use questions that you submit here to inform topics to address in subsequent All Hands and regional calls, as well as future written FAQs.
External inquiries
If you receive any inquiries from outside of Enfusion, including, but not limited to, from members of the media, investors, clients, vendors or partners on this announcement, please do not respond unless you have been previously provided with clear direction on how to do so. All investor inquiries should be forwarded to Bill Wright (Head of Investor Relations) and media inquiries to Mollie Applegate (Head of Communications) with a copy to Matt Campobasso in his capacity as General Counsel.
All clients will receive an email communication regarding this announcement today. Should you receive any inbound client inquiries, they should be forwarded or referred to regional sales or client services leadership. All other general inquiries should be forwarded to your manager, and managers should direct those inquiries to Matt Campobasso to ensure that we are responding consistently with our legal obligations and restrictions.
As we look ahead, please keep in mind that today’s announcement is the first important step in a long journey. Our day-to-day operations remain business as usual. I encourage you again to remain focused on our mission and continue to provide value for our clients.
Thank you again for your hard work and your commitment to Enfusion. I am immensely grateful to all of you for what we have achieved together and look forward to a bright future ahead.
Thank you,
Oleg

3. | What is exciting about the combination with Clearwater? Why are we doing this deal? |
This partnership brings together two companies with a shared commitment to innovation and a philosophy of technology first. It brings together Enfusion’s innovative front-office solutions with Clearwater’s trusted middle and back-office capabilities, creating a seamless, front-to-back platform for investment management. Some key messages about this deal:
● | Accelerates our common goal of building a front-to-back platform for the entire investment management industry |
● | Positions us to lead and increase our right to win in the asset management industry across all segments and sizes |
● | Allows us to offer a scaled and industry-leading front office platform, including portfolio and order management, to more of their clients (across all markets). |
● | Builds upon our leadership position in the hedge fund industry, expanding the market that they address. |
● | Takes advantage of our presence in Europe and Asia to drive faster adoption of their platform. |
● | Allows us to shift to a financially compelling operating model, focused on reaccelerating our growth and building on Clearwater’s strength in execution for Operations and G&A |
4. | How will this impact what we sell now and once the transaction closes? |
For now, there are no changes to our current sales process. Both organizations will continue to operate independently until the deal closes. That said, Clearwater’s CRO, Scott Erickson, and Dan Jacobs are collaborating closely to align strategies and ensure successful integration for our sales teams to occur once the transaction closes. Further details and guidance will be provided post-close to ensure a smooth transition.
5. | When will the transaction close? What should I expect between now and then? |
The transaction is anticipated to close in Q2 2025, subject to approval by Enfusion shareholders, the receipt of required regulatory approvals, and customary closing conditions. Until then, we will continue business as usual.
Organization
6. | What does this acquisition mean for me? |
This acquisition represents an exciting opportunity to be part of a high-growth company that is looking to build a leading, front-to-back solution to simplify the entire investment lifecycle, across industries. Combining with Clearwater means that we will be a part of a growing, global organization with expanded resources and expertise. We will be able to contribute to building an integrated, market-leading platform that redefines the investment management industry.
7. | What will this transition mean for our teams? How will things change for us before and after the deal closes? |
Until the deal closes, day-to-day operations and roles/responsibilities will remain business as usual. We will be working closely with Clearwater to identify the best path forward for our clients, our team members, and therefore our shareholders. After the deal closes, we will take steps to create an integrated company where we start aligning teams, policies, and processes, as well as building out a technology and product roadmap. This is an opportunity for us to be a part of a high-growth organization with the goal of revolutionizing the entire investment lifecycle.
8. | Will I have to move offices? Will our remote work policy change? |
There are no immediate plans to change our remote work policy, relocate employees, or move offices as a result of this acquisition. Both companies will continue to operate business as usual until the deal closes in approximately Q2 2025. It is important to reinforce that Clearwater is a high-growth company that is acquiring Enfusion to accelerate their ability to offer a front to back platform for the entire investment management industry. This growth agenda requires good, experienced talent and a global footprint.
Total Rewards
9. | How will this transaction impact my compensation and benefits? |
There are no planned changes to your compensation and benefits before the deal closes, likely to be in Q2 2025. If for whatever reason there is a change to your compensation after the deal closes, those changes will be thoughtfully considered and discussed with you and your manager.
10. | Will our existing HR policies and benefits (e.g., PTO/sick pay, retirement, health benefits, etc.) change as a result of this acquisition? |
There are no immediate changes planned to HR policies or benefits as a result of this acquisition. During integration planning, we will take the time to better understand the strengths and differences between both of our total reward programs – benefits, HR policies, compensation frameworks, etc. If there are any changes to HR policies or benefits, we will make sure they are communicated, looking to ensure a smooth transition for employees.
11. | What will change about the year-end process this year? What about bonuses? |
For most employees, we expect the year-end process to be similar to last year. Regarding 2024 performance bonuses, we are moving forward with our bonus schedule as planned. As a reminder, bonuses are entirely discretionary, and you must be employed and have not given your notice as of the payment date in order to be entitled to the payment. Your manager will communicate your bonus amount to you between February 4 to February 12. Bonus payments are anticipated on February 28 and EMEA on February 25
12. | How will my RSUs be impacted by this acquisition? What happens to my vested and unvested restricted stock unit awards? |
At closing, those employees with unvested RSUs will have their RSUs converted into Clearwater RSUs, according to a formula agreed upon during the merger transaction (the exchange ratio). These Clearwater RSUs will continue to vest in accordance with your pre-existing vesting schedule.
All vested RSUs up through the closing of the deal will be converted into the same consideration that our other shareholders receive at the closing of the deal. Specifically, Enfusion shareholders will be able to elect to receive mixed cash/stock consideration. We will provide more details about the mechanics of elections as they become available.
Hiring and Talent Acquisition
13. | How will this change our current hiring approach? Will we still get to hire new people? |
This acquisition creates opportunities for growth and innovation, and we will prioritize attracting and retaining top talent to support the goals of the combined organization. Hiring will continue based on already approved hiring plans and business needs. Both Clearwater and Enfusion will partner on the hiring and selection of more senior leadership roles, but beyond that, we expect hiring to continue as planned.
14. | What should we tell candidates who just joined? Will their offer still be valid? |
All employment offers are still valid for recent hires who have accepted an Enfusion offer but have yet to join. If you are a manager of one of these individuals, we recommend you reach out to tell them how exciting this deal is for Enfusion and their career growth opportunities.
15. | How does this impact our immigration processes? |
We believe in supporting global mobility for both current and new employees to get access to the best talent. From what we know, Clearwater follows a similar approach to immigration as Enfusion. As of now, for current H1 B employees at Enfusion, the plan would be to either file amendments or do an H1 B transfer to keep the work permit current and legal. For employees on a student authorization work permit or OPT permit, the plan is for Enfusion to continue with the process to submit paperwork in March to US-CIS.
When the deal closes, Clearwater will follow up with these employees to verify their status and support them in their process.
Client Questions
16. | How will clients be impacted by this change? |
Clients will benefit from a significantly enhanced platform that spans the entire investment lifecycle. By integrating Enfusion’s industry-leading front-office capabilities with Clearwater’s trusted middle- and back-office expertise, we will streamline operations, improve efficiency, and deliver greater value through a unified, end-to-end investment management platform.
A clear communication plan and detailed transition strategy will ensure clients experience minimal disruption, continuity of service, and increased benefits as we move forward together. This combination is an exciting opportunity to provide unparalleled value to clients worldwide.
