Can Perpetual’s Interfi Acquisition Strengthen Its Digital Growth Strategy While Reducing Debt?

Perpetual Limited (ASX: PPT) has agreed to acquire a 70% interest in Interfi Systems Pty Ltd, a privately owned Australian asset servicing technology company, in a move designed to expand the capabilities of its Corporate Trust business and accelerate growth within its Digital and Markets division. Interfi provides loan servicing technology solutions to the non-bank lending sector and currently supports approximately AU$55 billion in assets under administration through a platform that manages the full loan lifecycle, including administration, arrears management, collections and recovery services. The acquisition aligns with Perpetual’s strategy of enhancing technology capabilities through targeted bolt-on transactions and is expected to contribute to earnings growth from FY27 onwards. The acquisition is expected to be completed before the close of June 2026 and will be financed using cash generated from the Company’s existing operations. Separately, Perpetual also reported progress in strengthening its balance sheet, with gross debt expected to decline by approximately 15% by 30 June 2026 from AU$742 million reported at 31 December 2025, reflecting ongoing capital management initiatives.
