DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar 11, 2026--

RGP (Nasdaq: RGP), a global professional services firm, today announced the promotion of Jennifer Garcia to Finance Transformation Practice Leader.

As market volatility, M&A acceleration, enterprise resource planning (ERP) modernization, and AI adoption reshape the enterprise, the finance function has emerged as the connective tissue between strategy and execution. In this role, Garcia will lead RGP’s finance transformation initiatives, helping organizations evolve from legacy, transaction-driven environments into agile, data-driven performance engines.

Garcia will oversee engagements spanning target operating model design, shared services and Global Business Services (GBS), process optimization, and ERP and enterprise performance management (EPM) modernization. Her leadership strengthens RGP’s ability to unify finance and technology under a single accountable model, delivering measurable outcomes across the transformation lifecycle.

“Today’s CFOs are no longer just stewards of reporting and compliance — they are architects of enterprise transformation,” said Scott Rottmann, President of Consulting Services at RGP. “Finance modernization is essential to unlocking the potential of AI, accelerating M&A, strengthening governance, and improving capital efficiency. Jennifer brings the strategic vision and execution discipline required to help our clients turn transformation ambition into sustained performance.”

Garcia brings a distinguished background spanning investment banking, financial services advisory, and management consulting. She joined RGP as a part of the firm’s acquisition of Reference Point in 2024, where she advised leading financial institutions on complex strategic and operational transformation programs.

“The role of finance has fundamentally changed,” said Garcia. “As CFOs take on broader responsibility across technology, data, and enterprise strategy, finance must evolve from a reporting function to a performance engine. I’m excited to help our clients navigate that shift.”

Prior to Reference Point, Garcia built her consulting career at EY, leading post-separation M&A finance modernization initiatives for major insurers, managing global ERP implementations following acquisitions and advising on enterprise data remediation programs. She launched her career in investment banking in the Financial Institutions Group (FIG) at J.P. Morgan, where she focused on M&A transactions in the insurance sector.

The price of Brent crude oil, the international standard, spiked back over $100 as Iranian strikes hit ships in the regions waters and the ongoing American-Israeli war with Iran showed so signs of slowing.

Thursday’s major developments include Iranian attacks against commercial ships around the Strait of Hormuz and Iraq's port of Basra, escalating a campaign of squeezing the oil-rich Gulf region as global energy concerns mount. The U.S. campaign of airstrikes in Iran is now in its 13th day.

The Israeli military is also striking Iran and its militant ally Hezbollah in Lebanon, where more than 800,000 people have been displaced by the fighting.

Here's the latest:

Israel’s military said it was working to intercept a missile launch from Iran early on Thursday morning.

It was the third such announcement Thursday, as Israel also said it was targeting Tehran with strikes.

Kuwait’s Defense Ministry said an Iranian drone smashed into a residential building Thursday in the small Mideast nation, wounding two people.

A container ship off Dubai in the Persian Gulf came under attack Thursday, sparking a small fire, the British military said.

The British military’s United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center said the attack happened just before dawn. It said an “unknown projectile” hit the vessel as it was some 65 kilometers (40 miles) off the coast of Dubai’s Jebel Ali port.

It added that the crew of the vessel were safe.

The price of a barrel of Brent crude oil, the international standard, topped $100 a barrel early Thursday, just days after it spiked near $120.

Oil prices shot more than 9% higher as supply concerns worsened with Iranian attacks on commercial shipping around the Strait of Hormuz.

U.S. benchmark crude oil jumped to about $95 a barrel.

An attack on Iraq’s Basra port early Thursday killed at least one person and forced authorities to halt operations at all the country’s oil terminals, officials said.

Farhan al-Fartousi, the director-general of the General Company for Ports of Iraq, made the announcement in a statement carried by the state-run Iraqi News Agency on Thursday. Al-Fartousi said the attack targeted ships in the ship-to-ship transfer are of the Basra port on the Persian Gulf. He said it remained unclear if the ship was targeted by a flying or seaborne drone or a missile.

Rescuers recovered one dead body and helped 38 others after the attack. He said commercial ports in Iraq remained open, though the oil terminals had been shut.

Iraq’s State Oil Marketing Organization has identified the two tankers as the Safesea Vishnu, flagged in the Marshall Islands, and the tanker Zefyros, flagged in Malta.
