In imaginea de mai sus il avem pe Peter Oppenheimer, actualul CFO(Chief Financial Office) al Apple. Conform unui articol din publicatia Bloomberg, Apple doreste sa il inlocuiasca pe Peter Oppenheimer de la conducerea diviziei financiare a firmei. Cei de la Bloomberg isi bazeaza afirmatiile pe cateva surse apropiate companiei Blackstone deoarece lui Lawrence Tosi, CFO al Blackstone, i s-ar fi facut o propunere avantajoasa din partea companiei Apple. Actualul CFO al Apple activeaza in cadrul companiei din anul 2004 insa se pare ca persoanele din conducerea companiei nu ar fi multumite de acesta avand in vedere putinele achizitii facute de Apple desi firma are in conturi peste 50 de miliarde de dolari.
Apple Inc. approached Blackstone Group LP Chief Financial Officer Laurence Tosi to become its finance chief, three people with knowledge of the matter said.
Tosi told Blackstone CEO Stephen Schwarzman that he plans to stay, rather than join Apple, said two of the people, who asked not to be identified because the talks were private. Steve Dowling, a spokesman for Apple, said the company is “not conducting a CFO search.” Current CFO Peter Oppenheimer “loves the company and is extremely happy in his role,” Dowling said.
Google a achizitionat anul trecut peste 30 de companii insa Apple a stagnat la acest capitol si se pare ca zilele lui Peter Oppenheimer la Apple sunt numarate. Un nou CFO ar putea aduce idei noi, ar putea directiona compania spre incheierea unor contracte avantajoase si achizitionarea unor firme ale caror produse probabil si-ar gasi loc in ecosistemul Apple.
