Kaizen named one of CNBC’s World’s Top Fintech Companies 2026

London, 6 August 2026 – Kaizen, the independent regulatory reporting assurance specialist, has been named one of CNBC’s World’s Top Fintech Companies 2026 in the RegTech category.

Produced in partnership with Statista, the annual ranking recognises 500 leading fintech companies worldwide, assessed using a combination of general and market-specific performance indicators.

The recognition comes as Kaizen advances its platform-led strategy, bringing regulatory reporting testing, analytics, workflows, governance and regulatory intelligence together through the Kaizen Hub.

By combining deep regulatory authority with a scalable assurance platform, independent industry insight and extensive global coverage, Kaizen helps financial institutions move away from fragmented controls towards a more connected and continuous approach to regulatory reporting assurance.

The Kaizen Hub enables firms to identify reporting issues, investigate root causes, manage remediation and demonstrate effective governance through a single connected platform. It supports Kaizen’s accuracy and completeness solutions across global trade and transaction reporting regimes.

Michael Leach, CEO of Kaizen, said:

“Being recognised by CNBC and Statista as one of the world’s leading fintech companies is a fantastic endorsement of our strategy and the work of our team.

“Financial institutions increasingly need more than individual testing solutions. They need a connected platform that combines technology, regulatory expertise and actionable insight to help them strengthen controls across the reporting lifecycle.

“Our focus is on giving clients the independent assurance, operational visibility and regulatory confidence they need as scrutiny of reporting quality continues to increase.”

The fourth edition of CNBC’s World’s Top Fintech Companies was developed with Statista and evaluated businesses across eight fintech market segments.
