Corillian Announces Addition to Management Team
Former Microsoft Money and Microsoft Marble Program Manager Joins to Lead Development of Voyager
BEAVERTON, Ore., Sept. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Corillian Corporation, the leading provider of eFinance solutions for the financial services industry, today announced the hiring of Peter Horadan as vice president of product development for its Voyager eFinance suite of products.
Horadan, 30, was previously a product manager for Microsoft Money, Microsoft's personal financial management product. At Microsoft, Horadan led a team that expanded Money's online banking and brokerage features and owned technical relationships with various companies, including Intuit, Checkfree and Visa Interactive. Horadan also led the team that created the Microsoft Internet Finance Server Toolkit (Marble).
"Pete's track record in the strategic development and release of financial industry products is invaluable to us as we strive to make Voyager the most attractive platform for financial service providers," said Ted Spooner, Chairman and CEO of Corillian Corporation. "We've been very fortunate this summer to attract key talent from top-notch companies, including Microsoft, Edify, Integrion, KeyBank, Visa International and Wang Global, and Pete is another great addition to our team."
Corillian's applications allow financial service providers to offer a range of Internet services to their consumer and small business customers, including Internet banking, bill payment, bill presentment and cash management. Using Corillian's Microsoft NT-based products, customers can also integrate with their personal financial managers, Intuit's Quicken(R), Microsoft's(R) Money and small business accounting packages that support OFX such as Intuit's QuickBooks.
"Corillian has a great, smart team in place that really gets eFinance," Horadan said. "The financial services industry is just at the beginning of a long path of technology changes that will improve the way people work with and think about their money -- giving financial institutions many opportunities to serve their customers in great new ways. I think Corillian has a great role to play in helping financial institutions give their customers greater intimacy with their money."
In addition to his work on Microsoft Money, Horadan helped create the Open Financial Connectivity specification, a software specification designed to help financial institutions' Web sites exchange information with Quicken and Money. Horadan also helped integrate OFC with another specification from Intuit that led to the industry standard Open Financial Exchange (OFX) that is used by numerous institutions today.
Horadan and Matt Cone, now Corillian's chief marketing officer, created Active Statements -- technology that allows bank customers to electronically download their statements directly into their personal financial management packages, like Money or Quicken, without leaving the bank's Web site.
Horadan also worked as a software developer at Microsoft, working on parts of Internet Explorer and Microsoft Search Server.
Horadan holds a BS in electrical engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York.
