Galaxy Digital Inc. Chief Accounting Officer Resigns; New PAO Appointed

What Happened
Galaxy Digital Inc. filed an 8‑K on September 23, 2026, confirming that Robert Rico notified the company on August 5, 2026 that he will resign as Chief Accounting Officer and principal accounting officer (PAO), effective September 30, 2026. On September 22, 2026 the board appointed Dritan Muneka, the company’s Head of Accounting Policy, to serve as PAO with the title Corporate Controller effective as of the September 30, 2026 resignation date.

Key Details

• Robert Rico notified the company of his resignation on August 5, 2026; his departure is effective September 30, 2026.
• Dritan Muneka (age 40) will become PAO/Corporate Controller effective September 30, 2026.
• Muneka has been Galaxy’s Head of Accounting Policy since May 2022 and was at KPMG LLP (various roles, ending as Managing Director) from Nov 2010 to Apr 2022.
• Muneka holds a bachelor’s in economics and a master’s in international relations from Monash University, is a certified public accountant, has no family ties to company officers/directors, and no reportable related‑party transactions; he will sign Galaxy’s standard indemnification agreement (per the company’s Jan 28, 2022 Form S‑4).

Why It Matters
This 8‑K reports an upcoming change in Galaxy’s accounting leadership; investors should note the company is promoting an internal, experienced accounting executive (with Big Four background and CPA credentials) to the PAO role, which supports continuity in financial reporting. The filing discloses no related‑party concerns and no special compensation or arrangement details, so the change appears administrative rather than signaling financial restatements or governance issues.
