Napier announced that it has recruited Kevin O’Neill as its new Chief Revenue Officer, effective from January 2022.

Finance Magnates recently learned from a press release that Kevin O’Neill, a twenty-five year veteran executive from the financial industry, has been selected by Napier, the world’s first end-to-end intelligent compliance platform and a provider of advanced anti-financial crime compliance solutions, as its new Chief Revenue Officer.

Overall, O’Neill will help drive additional growth across its global operations. Specifically, as CRO, he will take charge of leading Napier’s new business growth plans, bringing its next-generation SaaS financial crime solutions to the world’s leading financial services businesses, delivering superior customer experiences and building the momentum that will allow Napier to achieve its ambitious growth objectives over the coming years.

Looking through O’Neill’s Vocation

Prior to the announcement by Napier, O’Neill served Fenergo as Head of EMEA Sales & at Global Head, Asset Management & Asset Servicing. For more than three and a half years, he fulfilled the requirements of the role in Dublin, Ireland.

Previously, he spent over ten years at RBC Investor Services. Initially, he began in late 2012 as Managing Director, Asset Managers, US Global Client Coverage at RBC Investor & Treasury Services. Later in December 2012, he took on the additional responsibilities as Managing Director, Sovereign Wealth Funds & Central Banks for seventeen months.

Additionally, BNY Mellon recruited O’Neill as a Business Development Manager in Spring 2003. For more than four years, he concentrated on Global Asset Servicing business development activities with a specific focus on Global Asset Managers offshore fund administration requirements.

The earliest known position that O’Neill has completed was the Director Of Business Development at the Bank of Ireland Asset Management. From January 1996, he worked on Asset Management & Private Banking business development.

The Enormous Benefits of Next-Generation AI & SaaS Solutions

Julian Dixon, the Founder and CEO at Napier, said: “We are thrilled to see Kevin take up the position of CRO. His deep knowledge of the financial services industry combined with his enormous experience in driving revenue growth will help us in achieving our ambitious plans for further expansion across all markets this year.”

“I am delighted to join the Napier team at this exciting stage in our growth trajectory. The financial services industry is realising the enormous benefits of next-generation AI & SaaS solutions to upgrade their financial crime operations. Napier's solid foundations, with its extensive client base and technology that is leading the transformation of the industry, makes it a solution of choice for many of the world's leading financial organisations. We can expect to see continued global growth as the power of our intelligent compliance solutions, including Transaction Monitoring, Transaction Screening, Client Screening, Risk-based Scorecard and Client Activity Review plays an even greater role in combatting financial crime,” O’Neill commented.

In other related news, Napier recently took on Andy Maguire as its new Chairman of the Board. And, this executive move follows the new stage of growth that Napier is working towards. Furthermore, Napier was named a Rising Star by the RiskTech 100 and has appeared in both the 2022 Deloitte Fast 50 tech list and RegTech100.
