Abraham Tachjian has joined Toronto-based Brim Financial as the Canadian company’s chief regulatory affairs officer.
“I’ve officially come on board at Brim,” stated Tachjian, who formerly headed open banking for the federal government.
Tachjian, a former director at PwC Canada, says his ties to Brim reach back to before he handled Canada’s open banking project.
“I first met Rasha just before starting my mandate as Canada’s open banking lead,” he recalls.
Over the months that followed, Tachjian says he was involved with Brim’s team across “working groups, panels, and countless conversations.”
During that time and experience, he “gained a deep appreciation for Brim’s bold vision, cutting-edge technology, and commitment to reshaping banking.”
Moving forward, Tachjian will now work “alongside [Rasha Katabi] and an exceptional group of innovators who are redefining what’s possible in the financial services space.”
He believes that Brim boasts “global potential.”
“I’m incredibly excited to join a team that’s pushing boundaries and building the infrastructure for the future of banking,” Tachjian stated.
Founded in 2017, Brim is a fintech infrastructure company aiming to transform the credit card platform and payment automation space.
“Brim aims to redefine the credit card and payment infrastructure landscape and empower our customers to succeed in a rapidly changing environment,” chief executive officer Katabi stated last year.
In 2024, the Fintech 100 company raised an $85 million Series C funding round to expand into the US.
The round of capital—powered by EDC Investments, White Owl Group, and others—”will accelerate Brim’s growth and fuel our international expansion,” Katabi said at the time. “We will continue to execute on our robust product roadmap, focus on platform automation, and integrate open banking capabilities.”
