Raise Financial Services Acquires Stratzy for Enhanced Algorithmic Trading

Raise Financial Services has made a significant move by acquiring the algorithmic trading and investing platform, Stratzy, in a deal that involves both cash and stock, as outlined in a press release. The exact value of the acquisition has not been revealed, but Stratzy will operate as a fully independent subsidiary of Raise.

Stratzy’s Offerings

Initially established as an exchange-registered algorithmic trading platform, Stratzy provides over 100 multi-asset algorithms approved for various sectors including equities, indices, futures and options, and commodities. This platform empowers users to implement pre-defined, rule-based trading strategies, addressing the rising interest in systematic investing, particularly among retail traders.

Rationale Behind the Acquisition

The acquisition is in line with Raise’s vision of creating a comprehensive, technology-driven capital markets ecosystem. Raise manages Dhan, a stock trading platform, alongside other products such as Fuzz AI, Upsurge, and Filter Coffee.

Future Plans and Investments

Earlier this year, Raise Financial Services acquired the innovative financial media start-up, Filter Coffee, in January 2025, and is also set to acquire wealth-tech firm Infinyte Club. Through this acquisition, Raise aims to introduce a structured, managed algorithmic investing layer on Dhan, thereby making system-driven trading strategies more accessible to a broader user base.

Investment in Stratzy

Raise plans to invest further in Stratzy to improve its offerings, enhance execution infrastructure, and elevate the overall user experience. The founding team of Stratzy will continue to oversee the platform, concentrating on technological scaling and expanding integrations with various brokerage platforms.

Dhan’s Milestones

Recently, Dhan achieved a significant milestone by surpassing the 1 million user mark, having welcomed 19,000 new users within just one month. Financially, the company has demonstrated remarkable growth, with operational revenue soaring by 2.3 times to reach Rs 877 crore in FY25, while profits amounted to Rs 408 crore.
