Francine Lacqua Biography

Francine Lacqua is an Italian-British journalist, television anchor, and editor-at-large for Bloomberg Television, based in London. Lacqua holds an LLB in English law from King's College London and completed her undergraduate studies at the Sorbonne. She is fluent in English, Italian, and French, a skill set that has supported her career in international financial journalism.

Since joining Bloomberg as an intern, Lacqua has advanced to become a news anchor, covering major events such as the World Economic Forum in Davos, IMF meetings in Washington, G20 meetings, the EU Leaders Summit, and OPEC. She has anchored coverage of Brexit, the collapse of Credit Suisse, and the Italian and French elections, where she was among the first international reporters to interview cabinet members. Lacqua’s reporting spans languages and cultures, contributing to her reputation in global business media.

Lacqua anchors the weekday program "The Pulse with Francine Lacqua," featuring interviews with leaders from global business, economics, finance, and politics. She also presents "Leaders with Francine Lacqua," a Bloomberg Originals series that explores the personal stories of influential decision-makers. Her interview subjects have included French President Emmanuel Macron, ECB President Christine Lagarde, Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey, JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon, Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, and financier George Soros.

Lacqua has interviewed finance ministers from South Korea, Russia, France, Mexico, Italy, and Greece, and has moderated televised debates from the World Economic Forum in Davos and the European Economic Governance package. Earlier in her career, she created the interview show "Eye to Eye," conducting interviews with public figures in a pod on the London Eye. Guests included Sir Philip Green, Margherita Missoni, Paul Smith, Christian Louboutin, Bianca Jagger, and Sir Martin Sorrell.

Lacqua’s work in journalism has been recognized with several honors. She received International TV Personality of the Year at the AIB Media Awards and was named a Knight of the Order of the Star of Italy (Cavaliere dell'Ordine della Stella d'Italia), an honor for Italians abroad who promote national prestige and cooperation. Lacqua was awarded the Bancor Award in Rome, becoming the first international journalist to receive this recognition for contributions to global financial and business journalism. She has also been honored as "Ufficiale" of the Order of the Stella d'Italia for her services to international journalism.
