ChartIQ Secures Undisclosed Investment from Citi

HTML5-based financial charting provider ChartIQ has secured an undisclosed strategic investment from US banking giant Citi.

The new funding round comes a few months after ChartIQ raised over $17.0 million in Series B funding, led by Germany-based investment firm Digital+ Partners, which focuses exclusively on backing B2B tech startups that generate revenues between €5 million to €25 million.

With the addition of the Series B capital, and before Citi’s investment, ChartIQ has raised a total of $20 million since its founding in 2012.

The latest infusion of new capital focuses on ChartIQ’s Finsemble platform, which allows clients to combine third-party applications into their in-house systems with no additional development work required.

The new funds will allow the Charlottesville-based company to hire more employees and invest heavily in strategic growth areas such as cryptocurrency-related products. ChartIQ currently employs a total of 50 workers globally.

“Citi believes in our vision to unify the desktops of financial institutions. We’re honored that they selected Finsemble as a digital transformation project worth investing in,” said Dan Schleifer, CEO and co-founder of ChartIQ.
