Vertex, Inc., a leading provider of tax technology and services, announced enhancements to its solutions integration with SAP® Ariba® Buying and Invoicing, providing customers with timely, advanced tax insights within their procurement and supply chain processes.

Vertex launched an SAP Ariba Tax API and the Vertex Indirect Tax for Procurement with SAP Ariba app extension in 2018, enabling companies to obtain tax calculations from within SAP Ariba Buying and Invoicing, while also supporting the requisition and invoice reconciliation phases of the tax process. This integration with SAP Ariba solutions helps calculate tax at the purchase requisition, invoice reconciliation and final tax determination phases, carrying tax from the purchase requisition to the purchase order. The integrated solution is now enhanced to distinguish between vendor charged, buyer payable, self-assessed and value-added reverse charge taxes, as well as multiple levels of jurisdictions.

SAP Ariba solutions provide collaborative commerce capabilities from sourcing and orders through invoice and payment along with expertise to help customers optimize their spend. The solutions drive simple, intelligent exchanges between millions of buyers and suppliers across both direct and indirect expense categories.

“Due to varying tax rules and rates, determining accurate tax to report and remit can be difficult for retailers, manufacturers and distributors buying and selling goods across state lines,” said Brian Wilchusky, director of SAP global partnership at Vertex. “Our continued investment in the technology platform and status as an SAP silver partner underscore our commitment to helping businesses navigate compliance and reduce audit risk in an age of increased tax complexity.”

Customers can easily access Vertex Indirect Tax for Procurement with SAP Ariba on SAP® App Center, the digital marketplace for SAP partner offerings. At SAP App Center, businesses can discover approximately 1,500 innovative partner solutions that integrate with and extend SAP solutions. There, customers can find, try and buy the SAP-validated partner apps they need to grow their business.

European Wealth Firms Build Private Markets Capability Faster Than They Communicate It, Peregrine Report Finds20.10.2026 11:15:00 EEST | Press release

Europe's leading wealth managers have built genuine private markets capability but most have yet to explain it to the clients they built it for, according to The Wealth 30, a new report from Peregrine Communications. The study analyses how 30 leading UK and European wealth managers and private banks position private markets. It concludes that communication, not product, is now the biggest barrier to differentiation in the wealth channel. Capability outpaces explanation 73% of the Wealth 30 engage in private markets yet only 40% operate a dedicated landing page explaining what private markets are, why they matter and how clients can access them. Just 23% combine explainers, a destination and repeatable house-view content. Swiss private banks set the benchmark, supported by house views, outlooks and heritage narratives. Pictet, UBP, Lombard Odier and Julius Baer all back their positioning with repeatable insight content, and Coutts is the clearest UK example. UK firms more often communic

Thredd, the AI-first issuer processing platform, today announced a new partnership with Finsei, a London-based payments company, to power the processing infrastructure behind Finsei’s new Mastercard debit offering.

Global antitrust enforcement is pulling apart along national lines, with 71% of senior competition attorneys reporting that policy became more fragmented across jurisdictions over the past 12 months, according to BRG’s inaugural Global Antitrust & Competition Report.

It also finds that about 60% of respondents expect antitrust enforcement to expand in scope and intensity over the next 12 months. “Domestic politics and geopolitical considerations increasingly influence the application of competition law across jurisdictions”, said David Parker, a managing director at BRG. “As a result, deal timelines and risk assessments often now have to be built jurisdiction by jurisdiction, from the earliest stage of
