Dan Petrozzo (Investor) - Alpha Squared CFO Advisors

I have known Andy for nearly twenty years. We worked together at Deutsche Bank when he joined my team as a COO for the Global Equities technology group. Andy proved to be an excellent COO, partner, and leader. He helped us develop and implement an aggressive strategy while putting in a set of processes, controls and financial metrics that allowed us to have a significantly deeper understanding of our business and much needed transparency to our internal clients. At the time, cost reduction was very important. Because of Andy’s insight and expertise, we were able to effectively manage costs without suffering reductions in delivery or quality. He works very well with people and inspires confidence and trust. I know Andy will be very successful leveraging all of his skills as a consultant and highly recommend him to any organization looking to become more efficient and effective.

Client Testimonial

Sethu Palaniappan (Former Managing Directory / COO Deutsche Bank)

Andy and I worked together at Deutsche Bank in London where he was the CAO of the Global Equities group. I hired Andy to design and implement a control structure and financial transparency that we needed at that time. Andy is very insightful, thoughtful and carries a certain gravitas with him that enables him to gain the respect of his peers and co-workers while implementing the improvements necessary. Andy was also an excellent negotiator and was responsible for almost every major 3rd party contract negotiation as well as our outsourcing arrangements. He was able to drive significant expense reductions across the organization while improving quality and automation. He partnered closely with all of the business heads in the Equities group and across other parts of the company. Because of his background in technology groups, he was able to bridge the gap in helping us understand the necessary investments and avoid making costly mistakes. He built and managed a team of high performing people and led by example. When I left Deutsche Bank I was fortunate to be able to hire Andy into a similar role at UBS. I highly recommend him for any consulting role that will leverage his skills. He will help your organization.
