The Global CFO Awards

Welcome to the first-ever HotTopics’ Global CFO 100 Awards, an integral new addition to the HotTopics' Global C-suite Awards.

The Global CFO 100 Awards in partnership with Soldo showcase the immense importance of CFOs who are not only safeguarding their companies' financial health but also driving transformative strategies and sustainable practices. 

We will celebrate the leading Chief Financial Officers who are driving transformative financial strategies and innovative business practices. These awards honour the dedication, foresight, and accomplishments of CFOs who excel in balancing cost optimisation with business growth, securing not only their companies' financial health but also pioneering sustainable economic practices.

 

How the CFO 100 Awards define the future

The CFO 100 Awards will set the benchmark for excellence in financial leadership. Nominated by our global community and Handpicked by our independent panel of industry experts — the winners exemplify the pinnacle of financial stewardship and strategic vision. Being named among the top 100 CFOs underscores a commitment to driving financial excellence and shaping the future of finance.

 

Recognising excellence in financial leadership

As a pivotal part of HotTopics' C-Suite Awards, the CFO 100 is a gathering that celebrates the pioneering spirit and financial acumen of Chief Financial Officers shaping the global business landscape. These awards cast a spotlight on those at the forefront of financial innovation and strategic foresight.
