Capgemini’s, Aiman Ezzat named Best European CFO in the technology and software category by Institutional Investor

Paris – Aiman Ezzat, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and member of the Group Executive Board at Capgemini, a global leader in consulting, technology and outsourcing services, has been rated the ‘Best European CFO’, buy-side, for the technology and software category in the 2017 All European Executive Team: Institutional Investor’s¹ annual ranking of the region’s top corporate leaders. Executives from across the region gathered in London last night to receive their awards at an industry event hosted at the London Stock Exchange.

To compile the annual list of top European leaders, Institutional Investor surveyed buy-side analysts, money-managers and sell-side researchers at securities firms and financial institutions that serve the region. Opinions of 2,600 investment professionals at over 800 financial services firms were polled.

Will Rowlands-Rees, MD Institutional Investor Research commented: “I’d like to congratulate Aiman on his recognition by the European Investment Management community. In a challenging time for investors with regulation, passive/active shifts, and a challenging geopolitical landscape, it’s more important than ever for corporations to be actively and thoughtfully engaged with investors to ensure their message and strategy is well understood. This recognition is a great reflection of the efforts Aiman and team have undertaken in the last 18-24 months.”

“It is with great pride that I receive this recognition because it is determined independently by industry players and colleagues whom my team and I serve and interact with on an almost daily basis,” said Aiman Ezzat.
