The seventh edition of the competition for CFO of the Year 2022, organized by EY Bulgaria in partnership with Capital, has started. As per usual, the competition will honor those financial leaders in Bulgaria who work for the successful development of their teams and companies and contribute to the establishment of good professional practices in the community of financial specialists.

“In the last few challenging and unpredictable years for businesses, the stability and sustainable development of companies largely depend on the professionalism of their CFOs. At this point, more than ever, good professional practices must be encouraged and appreciated. This year, EY marks 30 years of presence on the Bulgarian market and based on our many years of experience and our many clients, I can point out that there are extremely strong professionals in our country, whose expertise is at the world level. We are proud that since the creation of the competition in 2014, it has been recognized as a certificate of professionalism and a high standard of work, and with each passing year the number of participants increases” claims Nikolay Garnev, CESA South Cluster Leader.
