Early life

Career
Revoredo's late husband, Herberto Gut, founded Prosegur in 1976, but died in a car accident on 31 May 1997 with her Mercedes.

Revoredo was a director of Banco Popular Español, which was Spain's sixth-largest lender. She is member of IESE's International Advisory Board (IAB). In 2013, she held a 0.3% stake in Banco Popular. From November 2014 to January 2020, she was sitting on the board of Endesa (the first woman to sit on the board of the company ). In September 2019, Telefonica bought Prosegur's security alarm subsidiary for $300 million, partly with shares of Telefónica, making Revoredo a new shareholder in Telefónica.

Personal life
Revoredo married Herberto Gut and the couple moved to Spain in 1975 where her husband was in charge of setting up the Spanish subsidiary of his boss' security company, thus giving birth to Prosegur. Their son, Christian Gut, is CEO of Prosegur, and her daughter Chantal Gut sits on the board.
