Expert Profile: Richard Barr

Expertise:  My professional expertise is International Banking, concentrating on the areas of Money Transfers/Payment Systems and Int`l Trade Finance. Due to the high amount of travel my job requires, I am competent to give information concerning "Business Travel" as well.

Experience in the area
I have over 18 years of combined Banking/Trade Finance experience. Spreading over 4 continents. Having spent 5 years at Wells Fargo Bank provided me with a solid background in banking. After that, I moved to Israel and worked in Import/Export for 3 Years. Followed by another year as the resident expert in trade finance for the Jerusalem region of a medium sized bank. Capitalizing on my proficiency, I moved into the high-tech world where I remain today as a Business Analyst/Project Manager/Consultant for Payment Systems and Operations Risk.

Education/Credentials
Certificate in Speech Communications, AA in General Business. Both from Mission College, Santa Clara - California. BS in Int''l Business/Bus. Admin. From San Jose State University, San Jose - California
