CreditAccess Grameen, a leading non-banking financial company-microfinance institution (NBFC-MFI), has elevated Nilesh Dalvi to the position of Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Dalvi, who has been with the company since 2019, has played a key role in strengthening investor relations and driving financial strategies that have contributed to the company’s growth.
Dalvi brings over 16 years of diverse experience in financial management and strategic leadership across India, the US, the Middle East, and European markets. He holds certifications as a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and Financial Risk Manager (FRM) and has academic credentials from the CFA Institute in the US and the Welingkar Institute of Management.
His journey in the corporate world began in 2006 as an Assistant Systems Engineer with Tata Consultancy Services (TCS). After completing his MBA, he transitioned into the finance sector, joining Bank of America Continuum in 2010 as a credit analyst. During his nearly three-year stint, Dalvi developed expertise in corporate credit risk before moving to Dickenson IR in 2013 as CEO and Director, where he advised over 50 listed companies on investor relations strategies for more than six years.
In July 2019, Dalvi joined CreditAccess Grameen as Vice President of Investor Relations, where his leadership enhanced shareholder value and strengthened stakeholder confidence. By 2022, he was promoted to Senior Vice President overseeing corporate finance, investor relations, and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) responsibilities.
With this latest promotion, Dalvi will continue to oversee investor relations and ESG initiatives while taking on the broader responsibilities of CFO. Ganesh Narayanan, CEO of CreditAccess Grameen, praised Dalvi’s leadership, stating that his “extensive financial expertise and strategic vision” will further elevate the company’s position in the microfinance sector and create lasting value for stakeholders.
