The CEO has literally no say in creating Capital Allocations. That's what the CFO is there for.

  This will vary from company to company - In some companies the CFO was selected by the board to keep finances in order as the CEO is not trusted, in others the CEO will defer this to the CFO by choice or through collaboration, and some CFO's will probably do not much more than do what the CEO tells them to.

    Absolute nonsense. CEOs are facilitators. Maybe this is a case of startup culture seeping in but there is always a firewall between the CEO and the rest of the c suite.

  Who does the CFO report to if not the CEO?

    It’s mind boggling how many people don’t understand what a CEO actually does.

      Why do you believe there is only one way to structure a c suite?
