Hitchin RegTech Firm My Compliance Centre Raises £500k Series C+ Round

Hitchin-based software provider My Compliance Centre Limited has secured £500k in a Series C+ funding round, reaching a post-money valuation of £1.7m. The share allotment was completed on 5 March 2026, with regulatory filings confirmed today.

Founded in January 2020, My Compliance Centre develops a cloud-based platform that automates risk and regulatory compliance management for the financial services sector. The company targets the heavy administrative burden placed on compliance departments, offering tools that streamline regulatory monitoring, document management, and employee compliance tracking.

Financial services firms operate in an increasingly complex regulatory environment. Managing compliance manually often leads to fragmented data, slow onboarding processes, and heightened reputational risk. My Compliance Centre addresses these operational bottlenecks by replacing routine administrative tasks with automated, centralised dashboards.

The platform is tailored for regulated entities, including asset managers, fintech companies, insurance providers, and payment services. Its suite of tools is divided into two main categories: Compliance Operations and Employee Compliance. The former handles regulatory change management and compliance monitoring through proprietary features like FileChecker and Register Vault. The latter tracks individual staff requirements, including attestations, gifts and hospitality, personal account dealing, and conflicts of interest.

According to the company, the system is currently utilised by more than 200 companies and over 10,000 individual users. Despite this broad user base, My Compliance Centre operates with a highly lean team. Recent corporate accounts indicate three core employees, while professional networking profiles suggest a headcount of up to eight staff members.

The latest funding event is classified as a Series C+ round. The £500k capital injection and £1.7m post-money valuation are notably modest for a late-stage growth designation. This structure suggests a highly targeted capital raise, bridge financing, or internal restructuring rather than a traditional venture capital scale-up round. Specific investors for this allotment have not been publicly disclosed in the latest filings.

This raise occurs against a backdrop of shifting dynamics in the UK technology funding landscape. While broader UK tech funding experienced an 11 percent decline in 2025, late-stage capital deployment remained resilient as investors prioritised balance sheet stability over high-risk growth. The UK remains the second-highest funded country globally for technology, trailing only the United States.

Within the financial services ecosystem, there has been a clear pivot away from consumer-facing fintech applications toward foundational enterprise software. The regulatory technology sub-sector has actively bucked the broader downward trend, with recent industry data showing a nearly 40 percent year-on-year increase in equity funding for UK RegTech firms in 2025.

Financial institutions are facing mounting pressure to adhere to stringent Financial Conduct Authority regulations and Consumer Duty requirements. Consequently, demand for B2B software that can automate compliance without requiring additional headcount continues to grow. For My Compliance Centre, this £500k injection provides additional resources to support its existing client base and further refine its cloud-based architecture, ensuring its users can demonstrate robust, audit-ready compliance processes to both regulators and institutional investors.
