Diane Alfano

Diane Alfano, the CEO of Institutional Investor — which controls the Institutional Investor media brand along with global events and research businesses — is stepping down effective June 30.

Editor in chief Kip McDaniel writes, “Alfano has worked for Institutional Investor since 1984. She was named chairman and CEO of the company’s non-publishing businesses in 2010, adding the publishing group to her responsibilities in 2017.

“Her resignation comes as Euromoney, Institutional Investor’s publicly-traded parent company, moves to combine Institutional Investor with sister companies BCA Research and NDR into a new asset management division.

“The incoming CEO of the combined unit has yet to be named. A search is being conducted by executive recruiting firm Korn Ferry.”
