    It was my pleasure and privilege to work with Belinda for several years at S&P Global Ratings in the Asia-Pacific Structured Finance team. During that time, Belinda demonstrated her capacity to work effectively in a high volume data intensive, fast-paced, transactional and customer focused business. Belinda also demonstrated her ability to work across markets and in a variety of different roles and capacities – including leading teams effectively. She has strong transactional and project management skills, analytical skills and attention to detail, business acumen and very strong customer orientation. Defined and informed by her experiences to date, Belinda has now established Eticore – grounded in a clear and compelling vision that doing what is right and delivering the best outcomes and service to customers is the path to sustainable business success for Eticore and its clients alike.

    Belinda Smith was one of my primary contacts in her role as Director at Standard & Poor’s. At this time, I was running the State Street asset-backed commercial paper business and Standard & Poor’s rated the CP issued by the two programs. S&P also rated all of the public issued securities in which the programs invested. I found Belinda diligent and professional in all my dealings with her. I valued her ability to get to the nub of potential issues and to patiently respond to the many questions posed in the process. When my team was looking to expand in Asia, Belinda was able to provide some insight and contacts into several of the markets in which we were seeking to invest.
