Large projects often look great on paper but fail in the real world, leaving companies with massive, unrecoverable bills. ALN Kenya Group chief operations and financial officer Lameck Muriithi, recently named to the CFO 50 class of 2026, explains why he insists on securing customer commitments before spending company money.

He will focus on operational and financial advisory, elevating client experience, and reinforcing the systems and processes that support the firm's growth.

Among the partners are AAR Insurance, ALN, Cold Solutions Kenya, EABL, Equity Bank, GardaWorld, ICEA Lion, Kenya Power, Safaricom and SBSL.

He highlights the need for integrity in the profession, recognising the awards as an important platform for enhancing the profile of CFOs in the region.
