365Telugu.com online news,National, June 18, 2025: In a rapidly transforming financial landscape, Wharton Executive Education, in collaboration with Emeritus, has launched its globally acclaimed Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Program in India.
This initiative is designed to equip Indian CFOs and senior finance leaders with advanced strategic capabilities, global best practices, and India-relevant insights to excel in the evolving finance ecosystem.
As India accelerates towards a $5 trillion economy by 2027–28, the CFO role is evolving beyond financial stewardship into core strategic leadership.

In this context, the need for future-ready leadership skills has never been more urgent.
World-Class Curriculum Tailored for Indian Leaders
The Wharton CFO Program offers an unmatched opportunity for C-suite executives, including CFOs, financial directors, and senior finance professionals with over 15 years of experience, to sharpen their leadership and strategic finance capabilities. The program particularly benefits CFOs from mid-sized and multinational organizations aiming to scale their impact and leadership effectiveness.
Speaking on the launch, Avnish Singhal, Executive Vice President & Head – India & APAC, Emeritus, said:
“We are proud to bring this world-class CFO Program to India in partnership with Wharton. Our goal is to empower Indian finance leaders with tools to drive transformation at the intersection of strategy, technology, and sustainability.”
