"We welcome these new Board members and the experience,expertise,and insights that they will bring to REDD," said Mr. Osborn.

Today's news from REDD comes on the heels of a series of recent milestones:

In the six months to June 30,2020 REDD delivered 42% global revenue growth (GAAP) year-on-year (YoY) with Asia growing at over 100% YoY,demonstrating accelerating momentum and market recognition in the region,coupled with the company's proven market leadership in Latin America.

In October 2019 REDD appointed Jorge Wilmer as COO to support this global expansion. Mr. Wilmer brings a wealth of knowledge to REDD Intelligence as a veteran banker and an expert in emerging markets,and manages the daily operations of REDD's growing global business while advising the executive management team.

Ahead of the CEEMEA launch expected later this summer,REDD has built an experienced team in major business centers spread across four continents. REDD's emphasis on developing local teams to access primary intelligence in the emerging markets sets it apart from competitors that rely on secondary information sourced offshore.
