Aditya Puri, the chief executive and managing director of the second largest private sector lender HDFC Bank, has been ranked the best banking chief executive officer (CEO) in Asia by the investor community.

The bank’s chief financial officer (CFO) Sashi Jagdishan has been ranked the best CFO. HDFC Bank was also ranked the best IR company, thereby making it the most honoured one in the Institutional Investor magazine.

Called the All-Asia Executive Team Rankings 2016, the survey had 1,394 investment professionals from 582 financial institutions participating in it. The survey encompassed 1,541 companies from 18 sectors across Asia, excluding Japan, the bank said in a statement on Sunday.

The research reflects feedback from both buy and sell-side analysts, with an unparallelled level of detail on the IR efforts of companies across the region.

Respondents from the buy-side work at firms that collectively manage an estimated $963 billion in Asia ex-Japan equities.

Citing HDFC Bank as an example, the publication highlighted its use of technology as a key trend this year, particularly in semi-urban areas.
