As fintech platforms expand across borders, regulatory infrastructure is becoming just as critical as product innovation. For Finmo, the ability to scale compliantly across multiple jurisdictions is now a key competitive advantage.
The company has appointed Matt Poblocki as General Counsel, a move aimed at reinforcing its legal and regulatory foundations as it accelerates global expansion.
Supporting Expansion Across Key Financial Markets
Finmo’s appointment comes at a time when the company is actively growing its licensed footprint across major financial hubs, including the UK and Dubai, while continuing to expand across Singapore, Australia, and North America.
Operating in regulated markets requires not only compliance, but also the ability to build scalable frameworks that support rapid growth. Poblocki’s role will focus on strengthening Finmo’s global financial infrastructure — ensuring that the platform can expand efficiently while maintaining regulatory integrity.
A Strategic Hire with Deep Fintech and Regulatory Experience
Poblocki brings nearly two decades of experience across fintech, regulation, and commercial strategy.
Most recently, he served as General Manager at Binance for Australia and New Zealand, where he oversaw operations in a highly regulated and evolving market environment.
Prior to that, he held senior roles at PayPal and eBay, and played a key role in building the Asia-Pacific operations of Afterpay as one of its early regional hires.
This combination of regulatory expertise and operational experience positions him to support Finmo’s next phase of growth.
Building the Foundations for Scalable Financial Infrastructure
According to David Hanna, Poblocki’s appointment reflects the company’s broader strategic direction.
“As we grow, building trusted financial infrastructure goes beyond compliance,” Hanna said. “It’s about creating systems that give finance leaders clarity and control across global operations.”
Finmo’s platform is designed to unify fragmented financial systems, providing real-time visibility into cash positions, payments, and treasury operations — a growing priority for CFOs managing cross-border businesses.
Enabling Faster, Smarter Financial Operations
In his new role, Poblocki will focus on enabling Finmo to scale confidently across regulated markets, balancing speed of execution with strong governance frameworks.
“What stood out to me is Finmo’s vision to transform how finance teams operate,” Poblocki said. “Scaling that vision globally requires both strong regulatory foundations and the ability to move quickly.”
His role will be central to ensuring that Finmo’s platform continues to evolve as a trusted infrastructure layer for global finance operations.
Positioned at the Intersection of Payments and Treasury Innovation
Backed by PayPal Ventures, Citi Ventures, and Quona Capital, Finmo is positioning itself at the intersection of payments, treasury management, and real-time financial intelligence.
Its platform integrates data across banking systems, accounting tools, and enterprise platforms, enabling finance teams to manage liquidity, execute payments, and mitigate foreign exchange risk from a single interface.
A Strategic Move in a Highly Regulated Fintech Landscape
As fintech companies expand globally, leadership roles focused on legal and regulatory strategy are becoming increasingly important.
Finmo’s appointment of Poblocki highlights a broader industry trend: scaling financial platforms now requires not only technical innovation, but also robust regulatory frameworks and governance capabilities.
With strengthened leadership and a growing global footprint, Finmo is positioning itself to support the next generation of cross-border financial operations.
