English term or phrase: CFO
I would like to know the best way to translate this abbreviation from English into Puerto Rican Spanish.

What's the meaning of the abbreviation? Maybe is "Director de Finanzas"

It's the translation of a consultation from a Puerto Rican CEO and his American business partners about the electricity and gas production.

Thanks for your help.
