New Innovations in Risk Management and Payment Control Capabilities Fuel Global Demand

NEW YORK & LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Kyriba Corp., the global leader in cloud-based treasury, cash and risk management solutions, today announced a 40 percent year-over-year increase in first quarter sales, including a whopping 80 percent increase in North America, as demand continues to soar for the company’s integrated financial solutions among global brands. The company added 54 new logos during the quarter, including several Fortune 500 organizations.

The rapid growth is a result of the ongoing adoption of SaaS-based solutions among financial executives who want to modernize their treasury operations, increase ROI and better manage risk. During the quarter, Kyriba launched several enhancements to its risk management and payment controls modules to help address global currency volatility and payments fraud, which continues to grow at an alarming rate. According to a study by the Association of Financial Professionals (AFP), a staggering 74 percent of finance professionals report their companies were victims of payments fraud in 2016¹.

“Today’s senior executives seek proactive, secure risk management and payments solutions to mitigate currency devaluations and avoid complex fraud schemes that can result in significant losses,” said Jean-Luc Robert, chairman and CEO of Kyriba. “We have made significant investments in our platform to help our customers combat these issues and drive more strategic value to their organizations.”

Kyriba signed many mid-market to large enterprise businesses from a range of industries such as hospitality, insurance, retail and auto manufacturing. Kyriba now has more than 1,500 customers worldwide.

“As a multinational property and casualty insurance company, risk management is at the top of our priority list,” said Evan Greenstein, SVP, global treasurer of AmTrust Financial Services, Inc. “We selected Kyriba to better secure and modernize our treasury operations.”

Kyriba also signed several major strategic partners during the quarter, including BSP, FHL, Netsoft, RSM and World First. The company continues to see strong traction with its partner program, which contributed an impressive jump in overall sales activity during the quarter.

Both partners and customers alike have responded to Kyriba’s innovation around helping organizations improve financial controls and protect the value of their financial assets. Kyriba’s platform helps standardize payment approval processes and align treasury controls with security policies. This quarter it added new payment capabilities to protect clients from the growing risks of fraud and cybercrime, including controls to determine under which conditions payments can be edited and approved, as well as greater options for payment documentation attachment and review.
