About Aditya Khanolkar

With over 12 years of specialized experience in FP & A and financial controlling, I drive strategic financial operations and deliver scalable, high-impact solutions for global organizations. As a US CPA and Vice President of Finance at MSCI, I have a proven track record of transforming complex financial data into actionable insights that fuel growth, optimize IT finance operations, and improve bottom-line efficiency.​Throughout my career, including 4.5 impactful years leading IT finance controlling at Linedata, I have built robust frameworks for cost management, advanced forecasting, and cross-functional business partnering. I specialize in bridging the gap between technical IT investments and broader corporate financial strategy.​As I continue to lead financial strategies at the executive level, I am also deeply committed to corporate governance, risk management, and strategic oversight. I am actively expanding my professional footprint by pursuing independent director opportunities in India, bringing a commitment to financial transparency, ethical leadership, and long-term value creation to forward-thinking boards.​I am always open to connecting with fellow finance executives, board members, and industry peers to discuss corporate finance, IT cost optimization, and governance.
