TrueLayer’s Spanish expansion continues appointing Pablo Ruano as Country Manager
TrueLayer, Europe’s leading open banking platform, today announces further expansion of its Spanish operations with the appointment of Pablo Ruano as its Country Manager. Madrid-based Pablo will oversee commercial strategy in the country, alongside TrueLayer’s recently appointed VP of EU Sales, David Exposito.
The announcement comes as TrueLayer continues its Spanish expansion, where it offers 99% coverage of the banked population, processing more than half of all open banking traffic in the country through its collaborations with firms including Revolut, HeyTrade and Ninety Nine. TrueLayer is also the only open banking provider that supports app2app journeys for all of the Spanish banks, delivering a faster, easier way for people to give permission for a third party to access their bank data or make a payment on their behalf.
Pablo is an experienced commercial leader, joining TrueLayer from Lendo, a comparison site for consumer loans and marketplace and broker of consumer loans for banks, where he was General Manager for Spain.
Commenting on joining TrueLayer, Pablo said: “There is so much potential for open banking to deliver innovation to Spanish consumers and businesses. The growth of instant, account-to-account payments and their upcoming evolution as the primary payment option across multiple industries makes this an incredibly exciting time to join the market leader TrueLayer. It has already built a strong customer base thanks to its comprehensive bank coverage that makes it easy for firms to implement account verification, data aggregation and instant, secure payments.”
Prior to Lendo, Pablo was senior European operations manager at Uber, where he oversaw the European launch of Uber Freight, a digital platform for commercial shippers and carriers to match freight loads efficiently and simplify the movement of goods. He is also a fintech founder having built and developed Prestomatic.es, which focused on delivering cost-competitive micro loans with very short application times by leveraging automation and artificial intelligence.
David Exposito VP of EU Sales at TrueLayer commented: “TrueLayer is working with clients across Europe to replace costly, poorly converting card payments with instant, secure bank-to-bank payments that deliver a better customer experience. We’re delighted to have Pablo join us as he will play a crucial role in accelerating our Spanish expansion, winning new business, collaborating with existing clients to expand their use of our products, and supporting our UK and European clients to successfully enter Spain.”

Arizona Department of Gaming Investigation into Illegal Gambling Leads to Record-Breaking Firearms Seizure
Arizona Department of Gaming (“ADG”) Intelligence Agents, with aid from the Arizona Department of Public Safety (“AZDPS”), successfully concluded an investigation into an alleged illegal gambling operation involving gun raffles in Tucson, Arizona.
This operation resulted in the arrest of two (2) individuals, who face multiple felony charges, and the seizure of four hundred and fifty-two (452) firearms, plus ammunition, firearm accessories, over $4000 in cash, and bank accounts.
“Record-breaking seizures like this only further highlight the criminal activity that illegal gambling establishments attract when they go unregulated, posing a significant threat to public safety,” said Jackie Johnson, Director of the Arizona Department of Gaming. “I commend the exceptional work of our ADG Intelligence Unit for their unwavering dedication in investigating and addressing illegal gambling activities throughout the state. Their thorough and diligent efforts play a crucial role in protecting the public and ensuring compliance with Arizona’s gaming laws. I also want to extend my appreciation to our partners at the Arizona Department of Public Safety for their vital support during this enforcement operation.”
“I would like to congratulate the Arizona Department of Gaming on this sizable seizure of weapons and ammunition. Thanks to their efforts, two criminals are off the streets, and over 450 firearms are no longer available for criminal use.” Said Colonel Jeffrey Glover, Director of the Arizona Department of Public Safety. “I’m proud of the work done by my agency and we will continue to assist any law enforcement agency that requests our help. Collaboration between agencies in the State of Arizona is stronger today than ever, and the AZDPS will always be dedicated to those continued partnerships.”
Following this recent enforcement action, the Arizona Department of Gaming urges residents to exercise caution when conducting raffles, bingo, or other forms of social, amusement, or charitable gambling to ensure they are in full compliance with the law. ADG takes complaints about illegal gambling seriously. To report suspected illegal gambling activity, visit our website, call (602) 255-3886, or email [email protected]. You can remain anonymous.
