Slope Software announced today a new hire as the company increases its focus on meeting the growing global demand of their product. Arthur da Silva has joined Slope Software as Vice President, Head of Actuarial.

Mr. da Silva joins Slope with over a decade of experience in the actuarial field, including extensive experience with multiple actuarial modeling platforms and consulting for clients internationally across the NA, EMEA, and APAC regions.

"When I first saw the SLOPE platform, my jaw dropped at its numerous capabilities that streamline the process of building, maintaining, and managing actuarial models. The platform's innovative features stood head and shoulders above the other actuarial modeling platforms that I've had experience using and the SLOPE team's ability to rapidly iterate on their product left me thoroughly impressed," says Mr. da Silva, "My takeaway from the meeting was that SLOPE is well-positioned to supplant the incumbent actuarial vendors. I'm excited to join the team and continue building a product that I believe will truly revolutionize the way actuaries perform their work."
