Trading tech solutions provider oneZero Financial Systems is starting to make use of the M&A war chest it raised late last year, announcing the acquisition of Autochartist, a leading provider of client engagement automation through market data-driven content.
Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Autochartist provides embedded charting and other trading analytics tools, counting among its clients quite a number of Retail FX and CFDs brokers including Saxo Bank, OANDA, Swissquote, Pepperstone, and IC Markets. Adding Autochartist to its existing suite of tech products for brokers covering pricing, execution, liquidity and distribution solutions will give oneZero another entry point into brokers, which are increasingly looking for one-stop-shopping providers of quality solutions.
Ilan Azbel, founder and CEO of Autochartist, will be staying on as a member of the oneZero team.
The parties said that the acquisition creates a mutually beneficial relationship, enhancing both companies’ offerings by bringing two respective leaders in brokerage technology under one umbrella. Autochartist will continue to service its clients as the leading provider of client engagement automation for delivering market data driven content via email, CMS, messaging and social media platforms. In addition, the powerful cloud-based analytics and data engine that drives Autochartist will be integrated into oneZero’s market-leading offering, adding capabilities that empower clients with personalized, scalable market content that help drive customer engagement and retention.
Andrew Ralich, CEO and Co-Founder of oneZero said,
“The acquisition of Autochartist represents a significant milestone for oneZero. It underscores our commitment to delivering industry-first technology solutions, powered by data intelligence, that deliver unique value for our clients and foster loyalty with their customers. Our vision for the future of capital markets – centered on customer focus and data-driven insights – dovetails perfectly with Autochartist technology and their commitment to driving retention, education and engagement through market data.”
Ilan Azbel, founder of Autochartist and now a member of the oneZero team said,
“Joining oneZero marks an exciting new chapter for Autochartist and our clients. Our clients will continue to benefit from the products and services they know and trust, now enhanced by oneZero’s industry-leading customer support, robust infrastructure, and extensive data resources. Over time, the integration with oneZero will empower our clients to deliver smarter, more personalized content – driving higher customer engagement and retention.”
This transaction follows oneZero’s recent strategic investment from Golden Gate Capital, announced in November 2024, which is fueling both organic growth and strategic acquisitions. The company said that the addition of Autochartist marks a pivotal step in oneZero’s expansion and innovation strategy.
