TOKYO, March 29, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading global blockchain fintech firm QUOINE announced the hiring of four senior hires to expand their leadership team with the world-class talent needed to strengthen the company's position as a global leader in the cryptocurrency space, with security and compliance at the heart of its DNA.
QUOINE is pleased to welcome:
- Chief People Officer Jason Wagner
- Chief Information Security Officer Mike Mullins
- Senior Vice President of Product Vincent Moreau
- Chief Risk & Compliance Officer Rei Tanaka.
QUOINE intends to further enhance the company's security and compliance management systems by leveraging the global expertise of CCO Rei Tanaka and CISO Mike Mullins.

Vincent Moreau will play a key role in the launch of LIQUID, QUOINE's developing platform to address the liquidity problem in the crypto space.
Welcoming the new members of the senior leadership team, QUOINE CEO Mike Kayamori said, "When Mario Gomez Lozada and I founded QUOINE in 2014, we had a vision to grow this company into a world-leading provider of fintech services grounded in blockchain technology. Our journey has been incredible and although we still have much to achieve, we now have more than 190 staff working tirelessly in four countries to bring our customers the best possible products and services. Our achievements to date make me so proud. But the truth is, we are only just getting started. These four new hires will help us solidify our position as a global force in this sector."
The new hires will play an integral role as QUOINE prepares to launch several new products this year, including LIQUID, an all-inclusive, immersive cryptocurrency platform.
The four new hires will join a team of senior staff at QUOINE who boast more than 250 years of combined fintech experience at global top tier investment banks including Goldman Sachs, Credit Suisse and Merrill Lynch and global venture capital fund SoftBank Group.
