FDE: Multi-channel access to CFOs across Europe

Delivering a unique audience on paper, online and in person

FDE continues to evolve. When it was established as a pan-European CFO magazine in 1992, its purpose was to keep CFOs updated with the latest topics and trends and provide them with decision useful insight. As methods communication advanced, these new channels became an integral part of how we reached our CFO audience. From web portals to e-zines to social media, FDE has not only kept the pace, but has taken an active lead In serving the CFO with information across all key channels, including the likes of LinkedIn and YouTube.

FDE takes great pride in maintaining a loyal CFO community. We consider our audience as "members" and enjoy regular face to face meetings with them at our numerous events held throughout Europe. FDE has a "world class or nothing" attitude, whereby we want to delight both our CFOs and sponsors with the most useful content from the most important CFOs.

"I've been fortunate to attend a couple of FDE events over the past year and contributed to the FDE publication. FDE have enticed leading UK CFO's to share their perspectives across a range of topics including digital technology, achieving cost efficiency or managing through increased regulation. If you have the opportunity to attend their events, it's a perfect way to broaden your network in a relaxed environment, take stock from other sectors and enable you to gain insight for your current organisation."

Mark Evans, CFO, Telefonica UK(O2)

“This is a forum where CFOs can hear from other players in other sectors about what the latest thinking is and what is going on. It's always good to stimulate ideas and make sure that when one is back at their day job that one is thinking more broadly and can come up with ideas or contribute to the thinking of the business. These events are very useful for doing that.”

Andy Halford, Group CFO, Standard Chartered Bank

“I have collaborated with FDE on a number of occasions and have very much enjoyed the FDE experience.

FDE’s briefing and round table events “over deliver” in terms of venue, seniority of delegate and discussion quality.”
