In an exclusive interview with Finance Magnates, Panayiotis Omirou, CEO of MAP FinTech, shares his perspective on how regulatory reporting is evolving from a mandatory compliance function into a strategic business advantage.
He explains how MAP FinTech’s proprietary Polaris platform delivers unified, multi-jurisdictional reporting across EMIR, MiFIR, SFTR, ASIC, MAS, FATCA, DAC6, and more, combining deep regulatory expertise with advanced, AI-driven automation. A key upcoming enhancement, the Polaris Virtual Assistant (PVA), will provide real-time guidance and actionable insights, enabling clients to navigate regulatory complexity faster and with greater efficiency.
Omirou also emphasises that RegTech has become mission-critical. Ongoing global regulatory rewrites are raising expectations beyond basic reporting accuracy, placing increased focus on operational resilience, transparency, and robust data governance.
Looking ahead, MAP FinTech’s vision is to help clients transform regulatory data into actionable insight, strengthen operational resilience, and confidently lead through market and regulatory change. As Omirou concludes, “If we continue to innovate, our clients won’t just adapt to regulatory change; they’ll lead it.”
