I am firmly convinced that the modern CFO plays a central role in the corporate organization and is not just the custodian of numbers and the guarantor of compliance, but a true strategic leader: the link between the company&#8217;s sustainability and value creation, a professional capable of translating ethical and environmental visions into concrete operational choices, assessable in economic terms. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10790,"template":"","team-section":[225,223],"class_list":["post-10789","team","type-team","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","team-section-supervisory-body","team-section-operational-team"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Andrea Cignola - CIM<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/cim.eu\/en\/team\/andrea-cignola\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Andrea Cignola - CIM\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"I was born in Turin in 1988 and graduated in Business Administration with a thesis: &#8220;Financial Statement Analysis: How Financial Institutions Evaluate Companies&#8221;
