Buddhika Piyasena is Managing Director at Fitch Ratings. Two years ago, he volunteered to set up an APAC chapter of the Fitch Pride Network ERG and build the membership from APAC from the organization’s 11 offices located across APAC. As a result, numerous Pride Network events have been organized across many of these offices to build awareness of the issues facing the community and in support of building an inclusive culture with more than 200 employees in APAC participating in these events each time and increasing the membership of the APAC Pride Network significantly over this period. As a result, Buddhika was appointed Senior Sponsor of the Fitch Pride Network in early 2023.
