Urs Klarer

After early career positions as a Finance Manager and Controller, my professional life broadened as my interest in information technology emerged. While at UBS Investment Bank and Vontobel Asset Management, I filled a unique niche as an IT Project Manager with an extensive finance background. This gave me the ability to easily understand the needs of CFOs and others who were involved in a variety of business activities—from asset management to financial reporting. As a Project Manager, I have led both departmental and corporate-wide IT solutions that aligned financial analysis, data management, and reporting.
