Tagliabue has served as CFO for nearly a decade. Gian Franco Santhi\u00e0, currently group controller and chief accounting officer, will become group CFO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Edoardo Zegna serves as chief marketing officer and group sustainability officer. Angelo Zegna is CEO of the brand\u2019s EMEA region and global client strategy director. Gildo Zegna said they \u201ccontinue the family legacy and have demonstrated their business leadership over the past years,\u201d adding that he will act as a custodian of the brand\u2019s vision and values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Founded in 1910 in Trivero as a fabric maker, the company has grown into a listed luxury group with a market capitalisation of $2.6bn. The Zegna family owns 60% of the company, representing around 75% of voting rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Private equity firm Investindustrial holds an 11% stake, while Singapore\u2019s state investor Temasek increased its shareholding to 10% earlier this year. Their backing has supported Zegna\u2019s scale-up following its 2021 listing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The leadership reshuffle marks the group\u2019s next phase as it accelerates global expansion and strengthens brand governance under a new generation of family management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Originally published <a href=\"https:\/\/peinsights.substack.com\/p\/zegna-reshapes-leadership-as-investindustrial\">here<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/substack.com\/@andreeamelinti\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ermenegildo Zegna has announced a major leadership transition as the luxury menswear group strengthens its governance structure with the support of long-standing investors Investindustrial and Temasek.
