Global change and transformation consultancy CubeMatch has completed its second strategic acquisition in the UK, acquiring an initial shareholding in professional services firm DVCP. The full acquisition is expected to be completed by the end of 2026.
The acquisition represents a major expansion of Dublin-headquartered CubeMatch’s footprint within the UK financial services industry. The acquisition is the group’s second acquisition in the UK, following its 2021 takeover of London firm Bishopsgate Financial, and its second deal of 2025, after its acquisition of German firm BGK.
CubeMatch CEO Tom Melville said that the UK was a “priority market” for the company, adding that it has “plans to expand into the Midlands and Scotland, reinforcing our position as a challenger brand in the sector.”
DVCP, which was founded in 2020, specialises in financial services transformation, technology strategy and programme assurance. Despite operating with a small core team, the firm has a large network, comprising more than 350 associates.
The company gained recognition in 2023 for its work on the first solvent wind-down of a UK bank, devising and executing the withdrawal of Masthaven Bank from the UK market. Since then, it has worked on programme assurance for leading UK building societies and provided support for a second solvent wind-down in the banking sector, which is currently underway.
Tom Melville called the deal “a significant step forward in our growth strategy” and said that the combination of CubeMatch’s expertise with DVCP’s specialist team would mean the company is “uniquely positioned to help clients tackle the most complex technology and regulatory challenges in financial services.”
He continued: "We have a strong balance sheet and are well positioned to deliver on our strategy, delivering agile, expert-led transformation and innovation to clients globally, while continuing to seek additional acquisitions throughout this year.”
