Fidelity National Information Services to buy Worldpay for $35 billion
Fidelity National Information Services Inc. is set to purchase Worldpay for about $35 billion. “Scale matters in our rapidly changing industry,” said FIS Chief Executive Officer Gary Norcross, who will lead the combined company.

FIS and Worldpay combined will have annual revenue of about $12 billion and adjusted core earnings of about $5 billion. Worldpay is a player in card payments, mainly in Britain, while FIS, produces software for banks and asset managers.
