“Vista has an established track record of partnering with leading enterprise software businesses within the insurance industry and related verticals,” Vista Equity Partners managing director Jeff Wilson said in a press release. “We are excited to work with the Duck Creek team as we look to build on their best-in-class platform and solutions, which serve many of the world’s leading P&C insurance carriers.”

The company anticipate the acquisition to close in Q2 2023.
