Shonhard joined MonetaGo as Managing Director of Asia Pacific in June 2020 before becoming company president in August 2021. His prior experience includes 12 years at the financial services firm TP ICAP and senior roles at securities firms in Europe and Asia. As Executive Chairman, Chenard will remain closely involved with MonetaGo’s activities and act as an advisor to the company’s management team.

Since entering full production in 2018, MonetaGo’s Secure Financing system has processed over 3.5 million transactions in India. MonetaGo has partnered with SWIFT to provide banks with global access to the Secure Financing system via SWIFT’s Global API. MonetaGo has recently been mandated to build the Trade Finance Registry in Singapore.

“Building MonetaGo with such a wildly talented, innovative and creative team has been the gift of a lifetime,” says Jesse Chenard, Executive Chairman. “We’ve built a growing global business that has already helped to unlock trade finance for companies both large and small, and we’re just getting started.”

Chenard continues: “In our next chapter, we are focused on cementing our position as the world’s foremost provider of trade finance fraud prevention technology and continuing to bridge information silos across the trade ecosystem. Neil is a great leader for this new phase of development. As company president, he has driven MonetaGo’s success, meeting the stringent requirements of our clients in one of the most highly regulated industries on earth. As CEO, he will take MonetaGo to the next level, making trade finance work better for everyone.”

“MonetaGo’s engagement with regulators, policymakers and industry leaders on the key opportunities and challenges in managing fraud risk have long distinguished it as a company, and as a team we are now poised to transform the way trade is financed,” says Neil Shonhard, CEO. “I am humbled to be taking the reins as CEO at such a pivotal time, and I look forward to collectively building on the work done so far to lead the company into its next chapter of growth and impact.”
