Tiana Whitehouse
Founder & Managing Director
Tiana is a regulatory compliance expert and board adviser with extensive experience working with FinTech and financial services companies to navigate financial markets regulation while maintaining the freedom to innovate and grow a business.
Her early career as an international maritime lawyer ultimately led her to Risk Advisory consulting with KPMG, where she created anti-money laundering frameworks, fraud risk management programmes and ran high-profile forensic investigations.
Tiana then joined the Financial Markets Authority (FMA) in New Zealand, where she supervised and monitored financial services providers as part of the Supervision Team and designed sustainable regulatory policy solutions as part of the Policy Law Team.
After moving with her family to Berlin in 2019, Tiana returned to consulting and has since worked with many international clients (including crypto start-ups and market leader global trading platforms) on regulatory business strategies, licensing applications, anti-money laundering programmes, and all facets of risk and compliance.
