In a bid to bolster its appeal to financial services clients, e-discovery group Lighthouse this week announced that it would acquire Swiss consulting and chat messaging platform Forexus. The acquisition will allow Lighthouse to offer clients broad business communication retention and e-discovery offerings.

“This is an important expansion of our products and services for financial services institutions, further differentiating us in our markets,” Lighthouse CEO Brian McManus said in a statement. Forexus’ client base largely sits within the financial sector, while Lighthouse broadly serves large multinational organizations.
