Kueski Appoints Fintech Veteran Jordan Olivier as CFO to Scale Mexican BNPL Operations

Kueski, a major Mexican BNPL and credit platform, has appointed Jordan Olivier as Chief Financial Officer. This hire signals a shift toward sophisticated capital management as the firm scales its Kueski Pay and personal loan products in a market where credit access remains a critical barrier for millions of consumers and merchants.

What was announced

Jordan Olivier joins Kueski with over 25 years of experience across fintech, banking, and asset management. In his new role, he will oversee the company's financial strategy, focusing on scaling Kueski Pay and the Kueski Préstamos personal loan product. His remit includes capital raising, debt facility management, and unit economics. Olivier previously served as CFO and interim CEO of Braviant Holdings and held leadership roles at SeedFi, which was acquired by Credit Karma, and LendingClub, where he managed fund finance through their 2014 IPO. He also spent a decade at Charles Schwab in financial leadership roles.

Kueski has issued over 40 million loans in Mexico to date. Approximately 40% of the country's top e-commerce merchants currently offer Kueski Pay as a payment option. The company uses artificial intelligence to facilitate credit access for individuals and entrepreneurs, operating in both online and physical retail environments. Olivier holds an MBA from the University of San Francisco and a Bachelor of Science in Finance from San José State University. His background in transaction modeling and due diligence is expected to support the company’s ongoing expansion of digital credit access across the Mexican market.

"Jordan has spent his career building finance functions for lending businesses at multiple stages. As we keep scaling Kueski, diversify our products and continue expanding access to credit in Mexico, having someone with his depth in capital markets and unit economics on the team makes us meaningfully stronger," said Adalberto Flores, Founder and CEO of Kueski.

The companies involved

Kueski is a prominent player in the Latin American buy now, pay later (BNPL) and online consumer credit sector. Headquartered in Mexico, the platform addresses a significant gap in the regional financial landscape where traditional banking penetration is often low. The company’s ecosystem revolves around Kueski Pay, which facilitates transactions both online and in physical retail locations, and Kueski Préstamos, its personal lending arm. By leveraging artificial intelligence for credit scoring, the firm attempts to provide liquidity to demographics that are frequently underserved by legacy institutions.

In the competitive Mexican fintech market, Kueski has established a significant footprint, particularly within the e-commerce sector. The leadership team includes Adalberto Flores, the company's founder, and Claudia Infante, who serves as Director of Integrated Marketing. As an independent entity, Kueski has focused on responsible growth and scaling its digital credit infrastructure to support both individual consumers and small-scale entrepreneurs across the Mexican economy. The firm has positioned itself as a bridge for the unbanked and underbanked populations in one of the region's largest economies.

What FF News has reported before

FF News has tracked Kueski’s aggressive leadership expansion and market recognition over several years. Recently, the firm bolstered its security and risk management by naming Kueski Appoints Pablo Baragiola, Former Robinhood, Nubank and Capital One Executive, as Vice President of Fraud, drawing on his experience from major global fintechs. This followed the company being Kueski Named Mexico’s Most Ethical Financial Company in late 2025. Earlier organizational growth included the appointment of Kueski Appoints Sung Hae Kim, former Gitlab and VMWare Executive, as Chief People Officer and Kueski Appoints Vice President to Support Growth of Product Ecosystem and Expands Footprint in Mexico. These hires collectively underscore a long-term strategy of recruiting seasoned executives from global fintech and technology giants to stabilize its internal infrastructure during periods of rapid regional expansion.

What this means

The appointment of a CFO with deep experience in capital markets and IPO-stage growth suggests that the Mexican fintech sector is entering a period of institutional maturation. For BNPL providers in Latin America, the primary challenge is no longer just user acquisition, but the efficient management of debt facilities and unit economics in a fluctuating interest rate environment. Kueski’s move puts pressure on regional competitors to professionalize their treasury and finance functions. As the market consolidates, the ability to secure low-cost capital and maintain rigorous fraud controls will likely separate the long-term survivors from those struggling with delinquency and high funding costs.
