FIS, a global financial services technology leader, has announced a regulatory update regarding its planned acquisition of Global Payment’s Issuer Solutions business, which involves refiling a merger notice with the UK Competition and Market Authority (CMA).

FIS proactively identified and will provide additional information to the CMA during the authority’s review of the transaction. This action necessitates the refiling of the UK Merger Notice.

Despite the refiling, FIS stated it does not anticipate this development will alter the previously announced projected transaction closing timeline, which remains the first half of 2026.

Based in Jacksonville, Florida, FIS is a Fortune 500® and S&P 500® Index member. The company specializes in financial technology solutions for financial institutions, businesses, and developers, aiming to advance global payment, banking, and investment processes.
