Mumbai, October 04, 2023: Dun & Bradstreet, a leading global provider of business decisioning data and analytics, recognized and felicitated the “Finance Elite of India” on September 27, 2023 at the inaugural edition of ‘Dun & Bradstreet Finance Leadership Summit 2023’. (List of award winners below). The Finance Elite, who hold prominent positions of impact and influence within the field of finance, play a crucial role in shaping the course of their organisation, drive digital transformation and innovation, and shape the future of finance.
The Summit, on the theme of ‘Empowering Growth and Transformation’, served as a platform for exchanging ideas, insights, and best practices in the world of finance. It was graced by key dignitaries from the Government of India and its Ministries, departments, allied agencies, CFOs and other senior representatives of leading corporates, financial institutions, and industry associations.
Speaking at the summit, Avinash Gupta, Managing Director & CEO – India, Dun & Bradstreet said, “According to the Dun & Bradstreet CFO Optimism Index for Q3 2023, optimism for the domestic macroeconomic scenario has improved significantly to 72% in Q3, which is the highest in 10 quarters. This points towards the revival of the domestic economy. This economic recovery brings a thriving opportunity for CFOs to become enablers of growth.”
“Today’s CFOs are not merely engaged in the traditional tasks such as record keeping, audits, taxation or compliance. The role of the CFO is more multi-dimensional encompassing functions of risk management, strategy building & planning, digital transformation, sustainability, integration of ESG, and much more. The Finance Elite leaders are therefore those with exceptional skills in navigating complex financial markets, making strategic decisions, managing risk, and driving financial growth. At Dun & Bradstreet, our interactions with CFOs are now more data driven, around the themes of ESG, supply chain management, supplier/vendor onboarding, and credit exposure.” added Gupta.
This power list of top CFOs is an outcome of a rigorous process followed a review by an eminent panel of industry leaders - Mr. Shailesh Haribhakti, Chairman, Shailesh Haribhakti & Associates, Mr. Arpit Kabra, Chairman, WIRC, ICAI and Mr. Saurabh Shah, Senior Director, Finance, Dun & Bradstreet.
