Top 100 RegTech Companies in the UK | 2026

Lily Ruaah,
 17 April 2026

Regtech — regulatory technology — has quietly become one of the UK’s largest and most commercially mature tech sectors. Despite funding peaking in 2020 at £853.8m, investment has remained consistently strong, with £557.1m raised in 2025 and a further £99.7m in Q1 2026 alone. UK RegTech companies now generate £18.1b in combined turnover and employ more than 93,000 people.

We’ve ranked the top 100 regtech companies by total equity raised (all data sourced from the Beauhurst platform).

What is regtech?

Regtech — short for regulatory technology — refers to companies developing software and services that help organisations manage compliance, risk, and regulatory obligations more efficiently. This spans anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) tools, financial crime and fraud detection, regulatory reporting, ESG and sustainability reporting, crypto compliance, identity verification, and broader enterprise risk and compliance platforms.

The UK has 575 active regtech companies, having grown 212% over the past decade (from 184 in 2015). Uniquely among the sectors we’ve analysed, new company formations are still rising — 62 in 2024 and 46 in 2025, well above the 2018–2022 average — suggesting the sector is continuing to attract new entrants rather than consolidating.

Collectively, UK regtech companies have raised £3.97b in equity funding, with £3.26b — 82% of the total — secured since 2020. These companies employ an estimated 93,238 people and generate a combined turnover of £18.1b, making regtech one of the largest employers and revenue generators of any sector we’ve analysed.

Key findings

  • Ideagen, an East Midlands-based risk and compliance software provider, tops the ranking with £162.2m raised. It is closely followed by Behavox (£150.9m), which builds compliance software for financial services, and Featurespace (£115.7m), a machine-learning-driven fraud detection platform. BeZero Carbon (£85.4m), a carbon ratings platform, and ComplyAdvantage (£83.3m), an AML data provider, complete the top five.
  • London accounts for 72 of the top 100 companies — the second-highest London concentration of any sector we’ve analysed, behind only adtech. The South East follows with 11 and the North West with five. The top 100 also includes companies in Northern Ireland, East of Scotland, Wales, and the North East, though regional representation is otherwise thin.
  • The stage breakdown is notably balanced: 36 Venture, 27 Seed, 23 Growth, and eight Established companies, with six already exited. This distribution — with a heavy middle weighted towards Venture and Growth stages — suggests a maturing sector with both strong scaling businesses and a healthy pipeline of newer entrants.
  • The top 100 have collectively raised £1.81b, representing roughly 46% of all regtech equity funding in the UK — a relatively diffuse distribution compared to sectors like Big Data, where the top 100 accounts for 74% of funding. This suggests RegTech funding is spread more broadly across the wider sector of 575 active companies.

Methodology

To be included in this list of regtech companies, companies must be:

  • Headquartered in the UK
  • Operating in the ‘RegTech’ Beauhurst industry classification
  • Listed as ‘Active’ on Companies House

We’ve then ranked these companies by total equity raised.

The future of regtech in the UK

Regtech stands out from other UK tech sectors in one key respect: new company formations are still growing. While edtech, IoT, and adtech have all seen formations decline sharply since 2020–2021, regtech saw 62 new companies founded in 2024 — its highest year on record. This reflects the structural drivers of the sector: every new regulatory regime, every piece of compliance legislation, and every financial crime or ESG requirement creates new demand for regtech solutions.

Several themes are shaping the sector’s next phase. ESG and sustainability reporting has emerged as a major growth area, with BeZero Carbon, ESG Book, Connect Earth, Ecoveritas, and Joe’s Blooms all building platforms that help organisations measure, report, and comply with environmental regulations. Crypto compliance is another active vertical, with Elliptic, Coinfirm, Januus.io, Komainu, and Gatenox all developing AML and risk tools specifically for digital assets.

AI is now embedded across the sector. Companies like Aveni, Auquan, Diligent AI, capsa.ai, and Ankar AI are applying machine learning to tasks that historically required large compliance teams, from due diligence and reporting to contract analysis and real-time monitoring. And as regulation continues to expand — with the FCA, Bank of England, and HMRC all increasing their reporting requirements — the demand for automation-led compliance tools shows no sign of slowing.
