As President, Walley will lead functions such as operations, audit and compliance, customer success, banking relationships, business management relations, and more at Exactuals, all while serving as a strategic leader for the business and one of the primary drivers of its culture.

Walley is based in Los Angeles and will continue to report to Exactuals CEO Mike Hurst.

“Bryan joined Exactuals seven years ago following City National’s initial investment in our company; Exactuals was still in stealth mode when Bryan joined, and every transaction we have completed as a company has been executed on his watch. He has led our payment operations throughout, expanding PaymentHub’s focus from Film/TV residuals to music royalties, and more recently to insurance payments. Bryan’s responsibilities have expanded over the years, and we would not be where we are today without his leadership and vision. As demand for PaymentHub, SR1, and RAI accelerates, I look forward to working with Bryan in leading Exactuals to meet the moment,” said Mike Hurst, CEO of Exactuals.

“It’s amazing to look back to see how far we’ve come, but even more exciting to look ahead and see all the opportunity for Exactuals in the future,” said Walley. “Our existing industries are growing rapidly, and we are seeing demand from new markets that require the ability to accurately and quickly handle complex rights, analysis, and payments, and our team at Exactuals is ready to take them on!”

Walley’s role at Exactuals combines his love of technology and automation with his background in financial services and process improvement. Prior to joining the company in 2014, he held senior positions at IP3 Networks Inc., Intuit, and Exactuals’ parent company City National Bank. In 2003, Walley joined IP3 Networks Inc. as Director of Operations, where he was responsible for internal systems development and management, process and policy definition and implementation, vendor management, procurement and distribution, interviewing and hiring decisions, and budgeting. He was then named Vice President – Information Services Project Manager at City National Bank, where he helped deliver technical and process-driven results on time, on scope, and on budget, both internally and for the company’s clients.

In 2009, Walley joined Intuit as Senior Product Manager, working on strategic technology initiatives in the Financial Services division. He then rejoined City National Bank in 2011, serving as Senior Vice President – Treasury Services before becoming Senior Vice President – Manager of Datafaction, an RBC Company and an affiliate of City National Bank, offering specialized accounting software solutions to business managers, family offices, money managers, and other organizations that have multiple entities and accounts. Walley earned both his undergraduate and MBA degrees from the Marshall School of Business at the University of Southern California. Outside of work, he is an active supporter of the American Heart Association.
