Leonardo Real is Tether’s named chief compliance officer, confirmed by three sources

Asked:

“Who in Tether the stablecoin issuer is responsible for compliance?”

Three source confirmations — Tether’s own appointment announcement, an independent financial-news report dated July 12, 2018, and a current executive directory — all name one person for the role. Tether’s appointment page is historical and its public About page lists no compliance officer, so current status rests on the third-party directory rather than a fresh dated Tether disclosure.

Leonardo Real

Chief Compliance Officer, Tether

Appointed by Tether on July 12, 2018, after serving as AML Quality Control Manager at Bank of Montreal. A current executive-directory page continues to identify him as Tether’s CCO; Tether itself has not published a fresh dated confirmation since the appointment.

How the answer is corroborated

Tether announced the appointment itself, naming his prior role at Bank of Montreal — tether.io

Independent financial press confirmed the hire on July 12, 2018 — finextra.com

A current, though undated, executive directory still lists him as Tether’s CCO — rootdata.com

Tether’s public About page does not name a compliance officer, so no fresh first-party confirmation of current status exists
