What RTM does

RTM, legally RTM – Rede de Telecomunicações para o Mercado Ltda, is a privately held Brazilian integration and infrastructure provider for the financial market, founded in 1997 and headquartered in São Paulo with a regional office in Rio de Janeiro. The company connects 700-800+ financial institutions and service providers across 19 Brazilian states and the Federal District, operating three owned data centers (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Santana de Parnaíba) over a private financial-grade network. Its portfolio spans SaaS platforms (Hub Fundos for ISO 20022-based investment-fund integration, Hub Pagamentos for BCB payment-arrangement compliance, Open Finance Data Push/Pull, and Blockchain-as-a-Service for Drex tokenization), managed connectivity (Financial Net, SD-WAN, Cloud Link, SWIFT Bureau), cloud and colocation (Cloud Services, OpenShift Autopilot, Backup), voice and trade-desk services (Trade Solution, VoIP), and cybersecurity, with a cloud marketplace added in 2025 for partner SaaS distribution.

RTM monetizes through a mix of recurring SaaS subscriptions, managed connectivity and infrastructure services, professional services (Smart Hands, Squad-as-a-Service), and marketplace/affiliate referrals. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, though Hub Fundos is positioned as zero-upfront-investment to lower adoption friction. Distribution is primarily direct enterprise sales supplemented by integration partners (Sinqia, BRITech, B3 clearing) and a self-serve cloud portal. The customer base spans banks, brokerages, asset managers, fund administrators and distributors, payment institutions, sub-acquirers, and fintechs, with named enterprise logos including BTG, XP Inc., B3, Banco Daycoval, Superlógica, IB CCTVM, Celcoin, Monkey, and Master Corretora. RTM is an ANBIMA and B3 member company and holds PCI DSS, ISO/IEC 27001, and LGPD-compliant operations, positioning it as a neutral regulated-agent partner in the Brazilian financial ecosystem.

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Equinix: Global data center and interconnection operator with a strong São Paulo presence serving Brazilian financial institutions. Equinix competes with RTM's colocation, data center, and cross-connect services and serves many of the same financial-sector customers in Brazil.
• Temenos: Global banking software provider offering core banking, payments, and wealth management platforms. Temenos indirectly competes with RTM's Hub Fundos, Open Finance, and payments infrastructure solutions for the same bank and asset management transformation budgets.
• TOTVS: Largest Brazilian enterprise software company with broad coverage of financial services, including core banking, asset management, and ERP for financial institutions. TOTVS is a much larger incumbent that competes indirectly with RTM across multiple Brazilian financial-sector software categories.
• Stefanini: Major Brazilian-headquartered global IT services and systems integration firm with strong financial-sector exposure. Stefanini competes with RTM on systems integration, cloud, and managed services for banks and fintechs, though with a broader, less financial-verticalized portfolio.
• FIS (Fidelity National Information Services): Large global provider of financial services technology, including payment processing, core banking, and capital markets infrastructure. FIS overlaps with RTM in payments and capital markets connectivity, though at a much larger scale and primarily outside Brazil.

Direct peers

• ACI Worldwide: Global real-time payment and financial messaging infrastructure provider whose UP Immediate Payments and SWIFT-adjacent offerings overlap with RTM's Hub Pagamentos and SWIFT Bureau products. ACI Worldwide competes for the same payment institution and bank infrastructure budgets, though primarily outside Brazil.
• TIVIT: Latin American IT services and cloud provider offering managed cloud, cybersecurity, and digital infrastructure to financial institutions across Brazil. TIVIT directly competes with RTM's Cloud Services, data center, and managed connectivity offerings in the Brazilian financial sector.
• BRITech: Brazilian technology vendor serving asset managers, capital allocators, distributors, and fund administrators with Global Markets and post-trade solutions. BRITech is a strategic integration partner of RTM's Hub Fundos but also operates an overlapping suite for investment management workflows.
• Sinqia: Brazilian provider of software for the financial market, including investment fund management and back-office systems. Sinqia is both an integration partner of RTM's Hub Fundos and a competing provider of fund industry automation software to similar institutional customers in Brazil.

Others

• B3: Brazilian stock exchange and market infrastructure operator that is both an RTM customer/partner (via Hub Fundos clearing integration) and an adjacent infrastructure provider for the Brazilian capital market. B3 sits in RTM's ecosystem as an anchor counterparty rather than a direct competitor.
