The hires arrive as Nium positions itself to capture the convergence of AI, stablecoins, and programmable money, transforming payments infrastructure from incremental improvements to fundamental reimagination. With a payout network spanning 190+ countries, real-time capabilities in 100 currencies, and growing card issuance in 34 markets, the company is scaling critical global infrastructure for banks, fintechs, travel companies, payroll providers, and platforms.
"Sekhar, Danielle, and Amaresh have proven they can build, scale, and execute in environments where the margin for error is zero," commented Prajit Nanu, Founder and CEO of Nium. "They're joining at the exact moment when payments infrastructure needs to be reimagined — not incrementally improved. That's the mandate, and they have the track record to deliver it."
"These strategic appointments build on the strong foundation our leadership team has established. World-class payments infrastructure demands excellence across technology, governance, and go-to-market execution, and with Sekhar, Amaresh, and Danielle in place, we have the team to deliver on all three as we define the next era of global money movement," Nanu added.
The expanded leadership team reinforces Nium's ability to deliver reliable, intelligent, and compliant cross-border money movement in a rapidly evolving landscape driven by technological convergence.
