Clarity Systems, a leader in corporate performance management (CPM) and external reporting solutions, today announced the appointment of Jerome Lefebvre and Li Ming She as Managing Director and Technical Director respectively for Clarity Systems, operating out of a new office in Geneva, Switzerland. This office will expand Clarity’s market share across Switzerland, France and Belgium.

“Demand for Clarity 6(TM), our best-in-class corporate performance management (CPM) solution and Clarity FSR(TM), a unique solution that helps firms eliminate unnecessary risk and improve efficiency in the external reporting process, continues to grow across all of our geographies,” says Paul Hill, Chief Operating Office, Clarity Systems. “Our current customer base in continental Europe is also growing and the appointments of Jerome and Li Ming will help us meet the growing interest in and demand for our solutions and services.”

Industry Veterans Strengthen Clarity

Lefebvre is a graduate of the Paris-Sorbonne University and his work experience includes management positions at SAS, Microstrategy, Outlooksoft/SAP and Microsoft. Lefebvre’s Microsoft experience is especially useful, as Clarity’s solutions work seamlessly with Microsoft products and technologies.

“The cost savings and management process improvements that are delivered by CPM applications are emerging as ‘quick wins’ for European financial departments. I’m eager to highlight the many features of Clarity 6, including its ability to support rolling forecasts, an approach that serves CFOs well in these rapidly changing times,” said Lefebvre. “Clarity FSR has also found a receptive audience at publicly-held European firms, given its ability to manage the external reporting process,” he added.

Li Ming is a graduate of Paris IX Dauphine University. His work experience includes Ericsson, Societe Generale, and Comshare - where he supported Essbase in France - and ShowCase as Technical Director for Western Europe. Most recently Li Ming was co-founder and partner at Polarys , a consulting company specializing in Business Intelligence (BI) solutions.
