Droit Appoints RegTech Veteran to Boost European Sales Amid Accelerating Global Regulatory Change

Droit has brought in experienced RegTech specialist Jean-Marie Mamodesen to help the firm deepen its engagement with European financial institutions at a time when regulatory change is accelerating across global markets. Joining the London office, Mamodesen takes on the role of Regional Sales Director for Continental Europe.

With more than two decades in regulatory reporting, Mamodesen has held senior roles across the industry, including Managing Director and Head of European Sales at Kaizen, sales leadership positions at Deutsche Börse and Xtrakter, and earlier roles at ICMA and ISMA. His background reflects a period in which market participants have had to manage successive waves of reforms in transaction reporting, transparency, and data governance.

Droit’s Chief Commercial Officer, Craig Butterworth, noted the relevance of that experience, pointing to the need for deeper domain expertise as firms grapple with increasingly complex reporting obligations. “Jean-Marie has a proven track record of scaling regulatory technology solutions and a deep understanding of the European transaction reporting landscape. His expertise will be invaluable as we further expand our footprint across Europe to meet the need for automating regulatory compliance,” he said.

The appointment comes as firms continue to adjust to updates across MiFID II/MiFIR, EMIR Refit, and other reporting regimes worldwide. Institutions are increasingly looking for tools that help them interpret and implement evolving rules consistently, reduce the burden of manual oversight, and validate submissions with greater confidence. Droit’s decision-making platform, Adept, underpins its Trade and Transaction Reporting solution, which is designed to give users clearer visibility into obligations and how they apply across jurisdictions.

For Mamodesen, the attraction lies in addressing this complexity head-on. As he puts it, “What drew me to Droit is its ability to bring clarity and control to the increasing regulatory complexity. Through technology designed by the market and built by experts, Droit’s market-leading decision-making engine provides firms with the assurance, transparency, and precision they need to operate with confidence and stay on the right side of the rules.”

As regulatory expectations continue to evolve, the move reflects Droit’s focus on strengthening its regional expertise and supporting institutions seeking more rigorous, scalable approaches to compliance.
