We will soon find out who the top financial manager of the year will be in Hungary. At the Business and Finance conference on 8 September, we will present the CFO of the Year award, a joint accolade of Portfolio and Credit Management Group. As in earlier years, the jury will reward the CFO found to be the best prepared and most successful this year. Other top picks will receive the CFO Master 2021 award.
Nominations for the award are open to the finance managers of all Hungarian businesses (except those active in finance or consulting). Please send inquiries to cfooftheyear@portfolio.hu. We will send out the nomination sheet upon request, which should be returned to the same address by 27 August 2021. All nominees may visit the event with a 20% discount, while the top eight picks will receive free entry to the conference on 8 September.
