The Lippi approach

Practical help. Built around your fintech.

I work with your operations, business and technology teams to make controls work.

Know what matters

Understand the risks and rules that affect you. Know what to tackle first.

Build the right controls

Checks and processes that fit your risks, stage and team. Focus on what matters.

Put the plan into practice

Clear actions, named owners and realistic deadlines. Use your existing tools where they work.

How I help

What needs attention in your fintech?

Preparing to launch, sign customers or grow? Let’s find the gaps and agree next steps.

Know your risks

Identify what could go wrong. Check your controls and give each action an owner.

Launch changes with confidence

Bring business and technology teams together. Check risks, test changes and prepare for launch.

Keep track of supplier risks

Know which suppliers your fintech depends on. Set clear responsibilities and track issues.

Turn payment rules into action

Turn card network rules and fee changes into clear requirements, tests and everyday checks.

What’s included, timing & payment

The €3,000 review. One legal entity, one jurisdiction and one agreed business area. Up to three interviews, agreed documents, one leadership discussion and one feedback round.

Before launch. I review your planned controls and readiness. Testing controls in use needs real operating evidence and a separate agreement.

Timing. Usually two weeks once the documents and people are available. The initial review covers a smaller agreed area and a short gap summary.

Putting the plan into practice. The review includes your plan; carrying out the actions is separate work. Monthly support covers four days, up to 32 hours total. This includes delivery, meetings and agreed email support.

Payment. Fixed fees: 50% upfront and 50% on delivery. Monthly support is paid in advance. We agree any extra work or travel costs first.

Other work. Full licence applications, regulator correspondence and extensive policy writing are scoped and priced separately. Legal and tax advice are not included. Support does not guarantee a licence or acceptance by customers.

Before starting, we agree written terms, availability and how to address any conflicts of interest.
