Muinmos Adds Paul Ford as Investor and Board Advisor

Muinmos has appointed financial services entrepreneur Paul Ford as an investor and advisor to the Board, adding operational risk, RegTech and scaling experience as the firm looks to build out its AI-led compliance capabilities.

Ford brings more than 25 years’ financial services and operational experience. He was Founder and CEO of Acin, the London-based RegTech and AI operational risk provider, which he scaled over eight years before its sale to CUBE, an Hg portfolio company, in 2025. Acin followed Anchura Partners, the operational risk consultancy for bank chief operating officers that Ford founded in 2010.

His earlier career included senior operating and technology roles across financial institutions, including COO at Barclays Wealth, COO at Credit Suisse, and Director at Dresdner Kleinwort Wasserstein, where he focused on e-trading and post-trade processing. He began his financial services career at Accenture, building trading, clearing and settlement systems for capital markets, after serving as a British Army Officer in the Royal Engineers.

The appointment comes as Muinmos reports increased interest in its orchestrated AI agents for know-your-customer (KYC), know-your-business (KYB), client classification, risk assessment and lifecycle management. The company’s proposition sits around the use of automation and AI to support due diligence and compliance controls across the client lifecycle.

Remonda Kirketerp-Møller, Founder and CEO, Muinmos, said: “Paul has extensive expertise in scaling businesses in our sector, and we are very excited that he is joining our Board. Financial institutions are increasingly recognising the value that Muinmos delivers, from strengthening compliance and enhancing the client experience, to providing continuous due diligence throughout the client lifecycle.”

Ford’s experience is relevant to Muinmos’ next phase because it combines RegTech entrepreneurship with operational risk and financial-market infrastructure knowledge. His work at Acin and Anchura Partners gives the company access to expertise in building regulated-sector technology businesses around control frameworks, operating models and institutional adoption.

Ford said: “Several aspects of the business strongly resonated with me – from its data-first approach through to the clarity of Remonda’s leadership, vision and drive in addressing compliance pain points.”

He added: “The focus now is firmly on execution and scaling and, having been through a similar growth journey myself, I look forward to providing guidance and support as Muinmos continues to expand.”

Ford joins a Board that includes Lars Holst, Lars Torpe Christoffersen, Ashraf Agha, Michel Paul André, Remonda Kirketerp-Møller, and Anders Kirketerp-Møller.
