Coralie Billmann, CFA, is President and Managing Director of Circle Internet Financial Europe and member of the Supervisory Committee. She joined Circle in December 2023 to lead the application for an Electronic Money Institution license under MiCA with the ACPR and the Digital Asset Service Provider registration with the AMF. In July 2024, Circle became the first global stablecoin issuer to achieve compliance with the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets regulatory framework, following the company's receipt of an EMI license from the ACPR. Billmann credited this outcome to close collaboration between the ACPR regulatory teams and the Circle France team.

Her prior roles include COO and Authorized Director of 3S Money Club, a licensed Electronic Money Institution, where she contributed to launching its payments activity in Europe, and EMEA Treasurer at PayPal, a position she held for nine years. She also led High Growth Tech Sales expansion for JP Morgan in Paris and has previously held board directorships at both PayPal and 3S Money. Earlier in her career she held a role at Flagstone. Billmann holds a degree from Audencia Business School, is a CFA charterholder, and studied at Ohio State University.

He also led the launch of Euro Coin, a euro-pegged stablecoin released in June 2022, replicating the compliance framework developed for USDC. He has provided expert testimony on digital assets and monetary policy before the US Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs and the US Senate Banking Committee, and has been named to the International Monetary Fund High-Level Advisory Group on FinTech.
