Michelle Mallette

About

Executive leader in financial services and fintech with 20+ years spanning capital markets, investment management distribution, M&A, and regulated financial platforms. I operate at the intersection of growth, governance, and execution: building operating cadence (KPIs, forecasting, board materials), scaling revenue through institutional partnerships, and navigating licensing and compliance in complex environments. Today I serve as CEO (International) and Chief Strategy Officer at Panda Remit, a global digital financial platform serving 4M+ customers across 45+ countries (US-based with HQ in Singapore). We delivered 100% YoY revenue growth in 2023 and 72% YoY (2024E), expanded across the US, Latin America, and Europe, and built new product lines including a profitable B2B SaaS platform and a digital banking roadmap supported by licensing progress. In North America, I also function as the de facto finance lead, overseeing forecasting, performance reporting, and investor and partner diligence work. Before operating roles, I led high-performing institutional businesses at global banks: HSBC: Head of Hedge Fund Sales (USA), leading an IPO-focused desk and scaling group revenue from $35M
