How we helped

Our growth experts, led by Jonathan Williamson, worked in partnership with Caxton’s leadership team – including Group CEO Rupert Lee-Browne, CFO Trevor Price and COO Alana Parsons – throughout the process to ensure the smooth acquisition of the entire operating business and share capital of nimbl.

Nimbl helps children to develop money skills focused on earning, saving and spending. Parents can track, manage and control their spend in the nimbl app.

Caxton’s acquisition of the entire operating business and share capital of nimbl, expands its offering into the fast-growing market of youth money apps and cards. With an already strong brand and innovative offering, combined with the resources that Caxton will provide, nimbl will make a significant impact on the youth money app market.

Caxton founder and Group CEO Rupert Lee-Browne said, “At Caxton, we believe that financial education is essential, and we’re excited to be acquiring nimbl to expand our offerings in this area. We’re committed to helping young people learn about responsible personal finance and develop healthy habits around money management. With nimbl expertise in this field and our shared values, we’re well positioned to make a positive impact on the financial lives of young people.”

“This transaction would not have been possible without White & Black. The team provided incisive, expert advice that was always supported by wider commercial considerations. Their technical expertise was incredibly apparent they were personable and delivered their guidance in a clear and down-to-earth way”
Trevor Price, CFO, Caxton
