Kaizen RegTech Group (Kaizen), a leading provider of regulatory compliance solutions for global financial institutions, has announced new leadership responsibilities within its existing group structure. 

Dario Crispini will continue in his role as Group CEO, overseeing strategy and growth across the group. He will also continue to lead regulatory reporting product and innovation, while remaining closely involved with clients and broader market engagement.   

Michael Leach has been promoted to CEO of Kaizen Reporting, the group’s flagship regulatory reporting business. 

Dario Crispini said, “As Kaizen continues to grow, it’s important that we align leadership focus with how the business is evolving. This change allows me to spend more time on group strategy, innovation and client relationships, while Mike leads Kaizen Reporting through its next phase of growth. Mike has been a key part of shaping our commercial direction, and I know the business is in great hands.” 

Dario founded Kaizen Reporting in 2013, developing the first automated quality assurance solution for regulatory reporting. The company is now the market leader in this space, trusted by hundreds of financial firms globally.   

Michael Leach joined Kaizen Reporting as Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) in June 2025. He joined from London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), where he played a pivotal role in building UnaVista (now LSEG Regulatory Reporting Solutions) into a global brand. 

Michael Leach said, “Kaizen Reporting has an incredibly strong foundation, a clear strategy, and a talented team. I’m excited to lead the business, support our clients, and drive the next phase of growth through continued investment in technology, innovation, and delivery excellence.” 

Kaizen Reporting has recently announced several senior hires including James Crow as CTO and Chris Childs and Tim Keady as strategic advisors. 

The continued focus will be on enhancing the group’s strategy, technology, and commitment to its clients and people.
