Mr. Quinteros, a 17-year Wall Street equity research veteran, spent the last 15 years at global investment bank Goldman, Sachs & Co. As a senior equity analyst he recently led the IT Services research effort where his coverage included a diverse set of services and financial technologies companies.

Mr. Quinteros said, “This is an exciting time in the evolution of the financial technologies landscape with the convergence of data, point-of-sale, consumer-led technologies, and regulatory requirements forcing a revamp of industry value chains and market approach. While many companies are working to establish their footprints or redesign existing business models, I believe that we are still in the early rounds of this evolution and look forward to working with Doug and the team at GTCR in helping identify and create a global financial technology platform that will benefit from the transformation of the industry.”

“We are excited about the opportunity to bring Julio on board,” said Opus Global Founder and CEO Doug Bergeron. “Julio has a well-established track record at Goldman Sachs and will bring Opus Global significant industry expertise, public market knowledge, and a global market perspective that align well with our efforts.”
