Business Profile

I am the founder and managing partner of Axis Group, and a lawyer specialising in regulatory and legal advisory, with a particular emphasis on our Decentralised Finance (DeFi) client portfolio. With nearly five years of experience, I provide strategic, client-focused solutions for businesses operating in Malta and globally.

My clients span DeFi Protocols, Blockchain Infrastructure Providers, Layer-1 solutions, crypto-asset service providers, issuers and offerors under MiCA, payment and e-money institutions under PSD2 and EMD2, and investment firms under MiFID II. I specialise in advising DeFi projects, guiding clients through complex regulatory frameworks both onshore and offshore with clarity and precision.

Beyond regulatory advisory, I support our clients on matters relating to offshore structuring and spearhead fundraising and financing initiatives, leveraging my deep industry knowledge to help secure successful outcomes. As managing partner, I drive Axis Group’s vision of delivering innovative, practical, and results-oriented solutions
