Ettore Gotti Tedeschi (born 3 March 1945 in Pontenure) is an Italian economist and banker, and ex-President of the Institute for Works of Religion, also known as the Vatican Bank (from 2009 to 2012).
Tedeschi worked as an industrial and financial strategy consultant with the French IT company Sema-Metra from 1973 to 1984. In 1985 he began to work on finance for the financier Procomin Imi-BNL, and then switched to Sogei. He worked on the IPO of Parmalat, an Italian dairy and food corporation, which led him to be involved in the negotiations for the acquisition of Federconsorzi in 1991. Meanwhile, Tedeschi entered the Board of Directors of the Parmalat group.
In 1992 with Gianmario Roveraro as financier, Tedeschi helped to found the Akros Finanziaria at the request of Emilio Botín, closely associated with the Spanish Santander Group. The Akros Group collected approximately 275 billion euros from 200 shareholders (including Fiat, Iri, Cir, Ferrero, Parmalat, Commercial Union, Banca Popolare di Milano and the Torinia Savings Bank), and in 1993 he was nominated for Italy's President of the Finconsumo Banca SpA (later Santander Consumer Bank SpA), to be guide and chairman to the Italian operations of the Spanish bank.
From 1996 to 2006 he was Professor of Financial Strategy to the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, then to Business Ethics' University of Turin. As of current he teaches ethics at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, and he is writer for L'Osservatore Romano, and Il Sole 24 Ore. He also holds many positions in various banking institutions, funds of Venture Capital, and Private Equity.
