Wolters Kluwer, based in the Netherlands, is a global provider of business information, software, and services. It generates revenue mainly by creating and selling access to information databases, analytics, and journals; selling software for professional accountants and for businesses to manage their compliance requirements; and legal services for businesses such as registered agent services and due diligence.
The shift to focusing on expert solutions (software and information analytics) has boosted Wolters Kluwer's organic growth profile.
The company lacks scale and expert solutions in its legal and regulatory segment, leading to structurally lower margins compared with the rest of the legacy segments.
