Mexico City, MX & Lima, PERU – December 18, 2023 – ESTELA, a technological leader in digital compliance in Ibero-America, today announced the acquisition of Peruvian tax compliance software company TCI. ESTELA is a market-leading tax compliance software platform in Latin America. ESTELA is backed by Accel-KKR, a global software-focused private equity firm with US$19 billion in cumulative capital commitments. This acquisition builds on ESTELA’s vision to support economic progress in the Latin American region through digital compliance and transparency software solutions.
The tax regulatory landscape of Peru requires mandatory use of electronic invoices among other initiatives. This requirement offers ESTELA with a unique opportunity to combine its expertise in digital compliance in Latin America and solid financial backing with TCI’s extensive e-invoicing experience to meet specific needs of the Peruvian market. Furthermore, with a footprint across Latin America, ESTELA also enables companies with regional operations to meet varying compliance requirements across the region through a single trusted partner.
Patricia Santoni, CEO of ESTELA, remarked, “Peru has one of the most widely adopted electronic invoicing models in Latin America. By integrating TCI’s solutions, people, and expertise into ESTELA, we can help even more businesses meet digital compliance and transparency without having to manage complexity on their own, thereby allowing them to grow their business and comply with local regulations with ease. To our valued customers, we have you covered.”
This announcement follows ESTELA’s recent entry into Peru with the acquisition of DigiFlow in anticipation of growing demand for more efficient electronic invoicing and digital compliance services in the Peruvian market. As companies across diverse sectors seek to comply with increasingly rigorous fiscal regulations and optimize their digital compliance operations, such as electronic invoicing, electronic signature, digital identity, and exchange data interfaces between buyers & providers.
