Italy’s Meloni Ousts Leonardo CEO, Renews Heads of Eni, Enel

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni ousted the chief executive officer of Leonardo SpA, the state-backed aerospace and defense contractor, while retaining CEOs at energy firms Eni SpA and Enel SpA.

Leonardo CEO Roberto Cingolani will be replaced by Lorenzo Mariani, a company veteran who’s currently a senior executive at missile-maker MBDA Missile Systems Services SAS, Italy’s Finance Ministry said late Thursday. The government renewed the terms of Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi and Enel’s Flavio Cattaneo for another three years.
