UiPath, the Romanian unicorn, has agreed to acquire WorkFusion, a specialist in AI agents for financial-crime compliance, as part of its push into agentic automation for the banking sector. The deal was closed in UiPath’s first quarter of fiscal 2027, with financial terms not disclosed.

WorkFusion‘s software focuses on automating repetitive and resource-intensive parts of compliance work, including customer screening, anti-money-laundering (AML) checks, and know-your-customer (KYC) investigations. According to Daniel Dines, CEO of UiPath, “Financial institutions need intelligent solutions to combat sophisticated financial crimes and navigate evolving compliance requirements.” The acquisition brings WorkFusion‘s capabilities alongside UiPath‘s existing automation offerings.

The acquisition is expected to have a significant impact on the banking sector, as UiPath continues to expand its presence in the financial services industry. With the addition of WorkFusion‘s AI-powered compliance solutions, UiPath is well-positioned to provide financial institutions with the intelligent solutions they need to combat financial crimes and navigate complex compliance requirements. As the deal is now closed, UiPath is likely to integrate WorkFusion‘s technology into its existing portfolio, further enhancing its offerings for the banking sector.
