Corlytics known for its expansive regulatory technology solutions, has announced the appointment of Graham Howell as its new CFO.
This strategic move is part of the firm’s ongoing global expansion efforts, particularly following a significant growth phase in the United States and recent acquisitions including the RegTech platform from Deloitte UK, ING’s SparQ, and Clausematch.
The company operates at the forefront of the RegTech industry, providing comprehensive solutions designed to meet increasingly complex global regulatory demands. The recent acquisitions and expansion efforts have bolstered Corlytics’ position as a leader in the RegTech market, which is projected to grow by $65bn by 2032.
Graham Howell is tasked with driving Corlytics through a phase of rapid expansion, focusing on both organic and inorganic growth strategies. With a robust background in finance functions within the software industry, Howell brings 35 years of experience to the table. His last 15 years have been particularly notable, serving as CFO for various SaaS companies including Nextlane, TraceOne, and Ullink, all backed by significant private equity partners.
Howell’s role extends beyond traditional financial management. His extensive experience in overseeing exit processes and acquisitions will be invaluable as Corlytics continues its ambitious growth trajectory. The company aims to not only expand its geographical footprint but also to enhance its service offerings, moving beyond compliance and risk management to leverage analytics as a strategic business tool.
This appointment is part of a broader strategy to strengthen the leadership team, as demonstrated by the recent additions of three C-level executives: Steve Barnes as Group Technology Officer, Dr. Oisin Boydell as Chief Data Officer, and Ray O’Donnell as Chief Tech Architect. These appointments underline the company’s commitment to technological and data-driven excellence in the RegTech space.
John Byrne, CEO of Corlytics, commented, “Corlytics has completed three sizable acquisitions in the last 12 months, and we have ambitious plans to continue this path. Graham has led five exit processes and numerous acquisitions. His expertise in the integration of acquisitions in high growth software companies is going to be a real asset to the Group.”
Graham Howell added, “Corlytics boasts global clients spanning banking, insurance and payments solutions. Having successfully grown to become the pre-eminent regulatory technology player in the market, it is the RegTech pacesetter. Corlytics is on a mission to extend beyond compliance and risk management to help clients leverage analytics as a business advantage – it’s certainly an exciting time to be joining the team ahead of further innovative developments and acquisitions.”
