Alessandro Profumo lifted the reservation on the appointment as CEO of Leonardo. According to the rumors circulating in the financial circles, the manager, former number one first of Unicredit and then of Mps, would therefore have accepted the position at the top of the industrial group, replacing the current CEO Mauro Moretti.
The possible appointment of Profumo was the sensational news of the last minute full public appointments. The sixty-year-old Genoese banker, who is now chairman and shareholder of Equita Sim with great personal satisfaction but who is also on the Board of Eni, finally accepted the Government's offer to become a civil servant and to assume the role of CEO of Leonardo-Finmeccanica. On the possible position of general manager of the group, on the other hand, evaluations will come later, after the effective appointment of the managing director.
