Quicken was not announced as being sold again in 2026. The “being sold again” headline refers to Aquiline Capital Partners’ 2021 acquisition of a majority stake. In June 2026, Edward Jones made a minority investment, while Aquiline-managed funds remained the majority owner, according to Aquiline’s announcement.
Quicken’s ownership timeline
| Date | Prior owner or seller | Investor or buyer | Stake described | Deal value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| April 2016 | Intuit | A H.I.G. Capital affiliate | Acquired Quicken from Intuit | Not disclosed, according to TechCrunch. |
| September 9, 2021 | Quicken | Aquiline Capital Partners | Aquiline announced it would acquire a majority stake | Not disclosed, according to TechCrunch. |
| June 23, 2026 | Aquiline-managed funds remained the majority owner | Edward Jones | Minority investment; exact percentage not stated | Not stated in Aquiline’s announcement. |
Who owns Quicken now?
In its June 23, 2026 announcement, Aquiline said Edward Jones had made a minority investment in Quicken and that Aquiline-managed funds would continue as majority owner. The announcement does not give Edward Jones’s exact percentage or the amount invested. It does not describe Edward Jones as having bought Quicken outright.
This is the latest ownership information established by the cited announcements; they do not establish whether ownership changed after June 2026.
Why the “being sold again” headline refers to 2021
The headline traces back to Quicken’s September 9, 2021 announcement that Aquiline would acquire a majority stake. Quicken had previously changed hands in April 2016, when a H.I.G. Capital affiliate acquired it from Intuit. TechCrunch reported that neither transaction’s amount was disclosed.

So the sequence is not a new 2026 sale: Intuit sold Quicken in 2016, Aquiline became its majority investor in 2021, and Edward Jones later took a minority stake while Aquiline-managed funds retained majority ownership.

In a 2021 interview with TechCrunch, Quicken CEO Eric Dunn described the product as “one of the founding fintechs” and said it launched in 1983 as Intuit’s only software product. That is Dunn’s characterization of Quicken’s history, not an independently established industry ranking.
Dunn also discussed adding to Simplifi, Quicken’s newer personal-finance product, in that 2021 interview. That statement describes the company’s plans at the time; it is not evidence of current product plans.
