This business unit of UPS enables smarter trade through cargo and parcel insurance1, trade finance2 and payment services3.

"We are grateful to Bob for his loyal service and contribution to our company," said Kurt Kuehn, UPS chief financial officer. "He's built a strong portfolio of products for UPS Capital which offers innovative and competitive solutions for our customers. We are fully confident in Ronald's ability to build upon Bob's solid foundation and continue leading UPS Capital's growth and contribution to UPS."
