LONDON, June 15, 2026 – Proskauer advised Motive Partners, a specialist private investment firm focused on financial technology and technology-enabled business services companies, on its recently announced strategic investment in Mobius. Motive will acquire Mobius from Phoenix Equity Partners, subject to customary closing conditions.
Mobius is a UK-based pension investment platform serving institutional and wealth clients across defined benefit, defined contribution and self-invested personal pension markets. The company serves more than 600 clients, has over £33 billion in assets under administration and provides connectivity to more than 100 investment managers.
The partnership aligns with Motive’s wealth and asset management investment thesis, centered on the convergence of public and private markets, the democratization of alternatives, and the growing need for modern, connected infrastructure across the investment lifecycle.
The Proskauer team advising Motive Partners was led by partner Richard Bull and included associates David Hill, Katie Bunce, Laura Haddigan and Charlie Griggs (Private Equity M&A) and special regulatory counsel Edward Lister (Regulatory).
