Neeyamo, a global payroll and HR solutions provider, announced on 27 October 2026 from Los Gatos, California that it has been positioned as a Leader in Everest Group’s 2026 Multi‑Country Payroll (MCP) Solutions PEAK Matrix assessment for the Global and Asia‑Pacific (APAC) markets, and as a Major Contender for the Europe‑Middle East‑Africa (EMEA) market.

The PEAK Matrix evaluated 32 providers across Global, EMEA and APAC regions on two criteria – Market Impact and Vision & Capability – and Neeyamo’s upgrade from Major Contender in the 2025 edition to Leader in 2026 reflects its continued investment in native payroll engines, AI‑driven automation (ARIA and Compass) and the newly launched Payroll I.O platform.

Neeyamo highlighted that its platform now supports payroll processing in more than 160 countries, delivering payroll, time, absence and compliance functions while integrating with leading HCM ecosystems. The company emphasized its ability to provide a single platform that ensures consistent payroll, governance and visibility even in long‑tail markets where fragmented local vendors increase compliance risk.

Regional strengths were noted: EMEA remains its largest market, requiring high accuracy amid dense regulatory changes; Latin America (LATAM) is its fastest‑growing region, driven by rising demand for locally compliant payroll; and APAC’s diverse statutory frameworks, languages and tax structures make the Leader positioning especially valuable for multinationals.

Priyanka Mitra, Vice President of Everest Group, commented that Neeyamo’s proprietary technology and expanding partnership ecosystem have secured its differentiated position in the global MCP market. Samuel Isaac, Chief Marketing Officer and President of Neeyamo, said the recognition underscores customer trust and the company’s commitment to delivering scalable, compliant payroll solutions worldwide.

The release concludes with a forward‑looking statement that Neeyamo will continue to combine global scalability with local compliance expertise, intelligent automation and deeper integration with enterprise HCM ecosystems.
