In the payments world, innovation and regulation have traditionally been opposing forces. Monavate is changing that narrative. As we build payment ecosystems that disrupt the status quo, we face a complex web of multi-jurisdiction regulators and cross-border compliance requirements.
When Paul Marsden joined Monavate as Head of Risk and Eleanor Beech came aboard as Senior Onboarding & Risk Analyst, they saw an opportunity to transform risk from a necessary evil into our secret weapon.
They just needed a platform that could match our ambition and pace.
Since partnering with RiskSmart, we've been turning audits from dreaded ordeals into showcases of our operational excellence.
"I was ambushed by a surprise PCI DSS audit last week," shares Paul. "The auditors were relentless and demanding, but RiskSmart had absolutely everything they wanted to see—sometimes before I even knew where to look! I was answering questions I didn't even know I had the answers to. It was brilliant!"
Beyond acing audits, RiskSmart has transformed how the entire organisation engages with risk. It's accelerated decision-making, turned board meetings from compliance snoozefests into strategic discussions, and become a catalyst for meaningful change throughout our fast-moving business.
