MUMBAI: CNBC-TV18, No. 1 in business worldwide declared the winners of the 4th edition of ‘CFO Awards‘, the most coveted awards in the field of finance in India. ‘CFO Awards‘ honoured the best minds in finance that have steered their organisations by adopting a strict ‘financial discipline‘.
The awards ceremony that witnessed the best CFOs across the country come together to celebrate their peers‘ achievements was presided over by Mr. Salman Khurshid, Honorable Minister for Corporate Affairs.
Some of the dignitaries present on the occasion included Shikha Sharma, Axis Bank and Madhavi Puri Buch - MD, ICICI Securities.
The awards are designed to acknowledge the changing role of the CFOs ranging from cross border M&A to business diversification from business expansion by venturing in newer markets to transforming organizations. The fact that India Inc. emerged comparatively unscathed from the turmoil that engulfed the entire world economy can be attributed to the sound financial policies that India‘s CFOs adopted. ‘Financial Discipline‘ was increasingly been construed as conservative and retrograde, but Indian companies proved otherwise.
It is to highlight this contribution of these financial wizards of India, that MCX-SX presented the CNBC-TV18 ‘CFO Awards‘ 2009.
