Nexi, the European paytech for secure digital payments
Active in over 25 countries, Nexi, the digital payments leader in Italy, is among the top European operators in the sector. Together with its partner banks, it provides a wide range of payment and acceptance services to consumers, merchants, corporations, and public institutions.
Following the merger of SIA into Nexi, CDP Equity entered the company's share capital in 2021, creating a European digital payments champion. With the transfer of the stake held by Poste Italiane in 2025, CDP Equity increased its shareholding from 14.46% to 18.25%. In 2026, the possibility to increase the stake up to a maximum limit of 29.9% was approved, aiming to strengthen oversight of an enabling infrastructure that allows citizens, businesses, and public administrations to carry out millions of secure digital transactions every day.
The investment contributes to the spread of digital payments and the strengthening of the country's financial infrastructure, fostering innovation, security, and inclusion in payment services.
