Verimi, the new European identification, registration and data platform, is being joined as a shareholder by Giesecke+Devrient (G+D). In August, Bundesdruckerei, Deutsche Lufthansa and Deutsche Telekom joined as new shareholders.
“With Giesecke+Devrient, we are happy to welcome a new partner on board that brings a high level of expertise in the areas of payment transactions and security technologies,” Vermi CEO Donata Hopfen said.
“Customers making a payment transaction or identifying themselves want to trust the security of technology and data. However, there is still no secure and transparent standard available,” said G+D CEO Ralf Wintergerst. “As a leading provider of security technology, we are happy to add our expertise to close this gap together with Verimi.”
Giesecke+Devrient will become the 10th shareholder of Verimi. The others include Allianz, Axel Springer, Bundesdruckerei, Core, Daimler, Deutsche Bank with Postbank, Deutsche Telekom, HERE Technologies and Lufthansa. The joining of G+D is subject to the acceptance from the committees and the competent antitrust authorities.
