Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, one of the largest global financial groups, recently announced the appointment of Valeria “Val” Strappa as Head of Global Transaction Banking for the Americas. She will lead the business across the United States, Canada and Latin America.
Strappa joins MUFG from J.P. Morgan Payments, where she spent nearly a decade in senior leadership roles across the Americas and globally. She brings extensive experience in product innovation, commercial growth and large-scale business transformation, following earlier leadership roles at Citi, GE Capital and McKinsey.
In her new role, Strappa will lead the next phase of growth for Global Transaction Banking across the Americas. She will focus on accelerating commercial growth, advancing digital modernization and strengthening collaboration across Corporate & Investment Banking to deliver the full breadth of MUFG capabilities. Val will enable clients to grow their business, operate more efficiently, and unlock greater value from their operations, while reinforcing Global Transaction Banking as a strategic growth engine for MUFG.
“Val’s strategic vision, commercial leadership and transformation experience make her the right leader to accelerate our growth in the region,” said Kevin Cronin, CEO of MUFG Americas. “Global Transaction Banking is a strategic priority for MUFG because it connects our financing strength with the operating capabilities our clients rely on every day. As clients’ financing and operating needs become increasingly interconnected, we have a unique opportunity to deliver further value through a more connected experience and to become an increasingly strategic partner for our clients.”
