Anthony DiClemente Appointed EVP of Investor Relations at ViacomCBS

Anthony DiClemente has been named to the position of executive VP of investor relations at ViacomCBS, effective upon closing of the deal to combine CBS and Viacom.

DiClemente will report to Christina Spade, executive VP and chief financial officer at CBS Corporation, who will serve as chief financial officer of the combined company. In his new role, DiClemente will coordinate and oversee outreach strategies to the investment community. In addition, he will also be closely involved in refining the newly combined company’s corporate strategy and competitive positioning.

DiClemente joined CBS in June as executive VP of investor relations. Before joining CBS, he was senior managing director and fundamental research analyst at Evercore Group, where he had worked since 2017. Prior to that, DiClemente led the equity research coverage of internet and media companies for Nomura Instinet, and before that, he worked for Barclays and Lehman Brothers for 13 years.

“I am thrilled that Anthony will step into this key leadership position at the newly unified company,” said Spade. “His deep knowledge of our business, his vast research experience, and the relationships he’s built with investors during his time as a Wall Street analyst covering the media industry will be invaluable to us and the future of our company.”
