Our Team

Jaqueline Suryan
“The CMA culture means focus on human beings, showing a close care for people that can be rarely found elsewhere nowadays. It is empathy synthesized in concrete actions aimed at the micro and macro well-being of the whole team. The CMA culture inspires everyone to improve on a daily basis, to get involved in the firm's activities, to relate to each other, to be a real team. And that directly reflects on our work, focused on better serving our clients, on being innovative and effective.”
