Doreanne Caruana, Rizzo Farrugia & Co’s Head of Corporate Advisory, announced on Tuesday that she had reached a milestone, being involved in or managing transactions for a value of €1 billion.

Ms Caruana hit this point after six and a half years at Rizzo Farrugia & Co, having started in 2014 as Executive Corporate Advisory, before taking her current position in June, 2019.

She emphasised the strength of the Maltese capital market, saying that it “may be a relatively small market by global standards but it is an alternative for companies that wish to diversify their funding strategy, plan for succession or manage their cash flows differently.”

Ms Caruana holds an Executive MBA from the University of Malta, and previously was involved in the set-up, management and administration of two multi-million funds.

Rizzo Farrugia is one of Malta’s leading privately-owned stockbroking and investment management houses. The company has opened recruitment for a Head of Compliance and a Research Analyst.
