Agathe Sanna (Hellene reformed: Αγάθε Σαɴɴά; Gylic transcription: Agaþe Sana; born 5 June 1970) is a Gylian businesswoman and investor. She is the founder and CEO of Agsa. One of Gylias' most esteemed business figures, she is a crucial private partner of the National Capital Investment Board, and considered the most influential figure in the private sector of the Gylian economy.

Early life

Agathe was born on 5 June 1970 in Argyrokastron. Her family is of primarily Hellene descent, with some Nordic ancestry. She is the youngest of two children.

She comes from a modest background — her parents were a mathematics teacher and a nurse. She became interested in financial matters due to the wretched decade.

She studied finance at the Federal University of Argyrokastron, graduating in 1991.

Career

Agathe began working as an independent investor after graduation, and established Agsa in 1992. She purchased shares in companies on the GLX, developing a cautious style that emphasised margin of safety, patience, and quality investing.

Agsa became successful, its steady growth allowing it to expand into a full-fledged investment company. Agathe gained recognition for her talent at finance, and developed a positive reputation. She entered the Social Partnership Program, which increased her fame nationally, and Agsa became the main private partner of the National Capital Investment Board.

Philosophy

Agathe follows a "strategy of omnipresence", in keeping with Agsa's leading role in the financial sector. She has invested or purchased shares in every Gylian company, and her judgement carries great weight.

She describes her business philosophy as follows: "Keep a trustworthy reputation, be nice to people, keep your promises, and work smartly."

She firmly believes that the economy must be responsive to human needs, and champions the common good as the most important element of investment.

She has used her fame to support and participate in various public information films and social campaigns. Some of the causes she's promoted include participating in the Social Partnership Program, philanthropy and social responsibility among the wealthy, and use of public transport and cycling over cars.
