Reval’s Okochi Named to Treasury & Risk’s 100 Most Influential People in Finance
New York, June 15, 2011 – Reval CEO and Co-founder Jiro Okochi was named one of the 100 Most Influential People in Finance by Treasury & Risk magazine this month, says Reval (www.reval.com), the premiere provider of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions for corporate financial risk management. The listing represents the fourth time since 2003 that Okochi’s industry accomplishments have been recognized by this leading treasury publication.
“The passion that led to Reval’s founding has always been to help corporate financial professionals better manage and mitigate risk,” Okochi says. “I’m proud to say that over the past twelve years, we’ve delivered the functionality and deep expertise that have enabled companies to sense and respond quickly to complex market and regulatory changes.”
Placed among luminaries such as Apple CEO Steve Jobs in the Technocrats category, Okochi was recognized for leading an acquisition strategy that would change the vendor landscape for finance, treasury and accounting groups looking for an all-in-one SaaS solution for treasury and risk management.
“Okochi’s acquisition of Central European cash management vendor ecofinance expanded Reval’s horizons, pushing it into the cash management space and growing its geographical footprint,” the magazine noted.
The list honors executives who, according to Treasury & Risk, “have led business and the global economy to a better place.”
