Institutional Investor Magazine Ranks Europe's Best CEOs

New York (ots/PRNewswire)

Institutional Investor magazine today
announced Europe's top chief executives, as ranked by research
analysts and portfolio managers. The winning CEOs appear in the
magazine's April issue.
Thirteen of the 33 European companies whose CEOs received the
highest scores are British, five are French, four are German, three
are Swiss, and two are Dutch; an Anglo-Dutch and a French-German
company each has a top CEO, as do companies in Finland, Ireland,
Italy and Sweden.
To find the leaders II surveyed about 700 research analysts and
portfolio managers at more than 250 money management firms that
invest an estimated US$3 trillion in European equities. Also polled
were almost 620 sell-side analysts -- drawn from a pool of those who
received at least one vote in II's All-Europe and Emerging
Europe/Middle East/Africa research team surveys -- at more than 90
brokerages.
Listed below are the European-company chief executives who
received the highest scores, their companies and their sector.
