Francesco Matteini
CEO & Founder
At InnReg, we support online broker-dealers, digital lenders, alternative trading systems (ATS), crowdfunding platforms, robo-advisers, cryptocurrency platforms, and other fintechs who may be operating in a regulated environment or considering becoming regulated.
We help our clients resolve a myriad of complex compliance issues for cutting-edge clients in highly regulated industries. We have helped fintech innovators launch and grow their businesses by supporting their compliance function, including providing compliance services and leadership on a fully outsourced basis.
You bring us a disruptive idea in a highly regulated business environment, and we’ll creatively chart a path to overcome your regulatory obstacles.
We sift through black, white, and gray areas to identify all the pertinent regulatory issues. Then we conduct product strategy sessions to identify the most viable approach to maneuvering safely and securely around those obstacles while maintaining the integrity of the original product design.
Many clients outsource their entire compliance function to InnReg. For us, that’s the true testament to the quality of our solutions and the trust we engender.
We look forward to meeting you, learning about your goals and challenges, and exploring how outsourced compliance consulting could support your long-term growth objectives.
