“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,” Keoun, Kelly and Satariano report. “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.”
“Oppenheimer, who has been with Apple since 1996, didn’t respond to a request for comment… In October, Jobs said that the company has a good track record of using its cash and is reserving it for one or more ‘strategic opportunities,'” Keoun, Kelly and Satariano report. “A new CFO will have “a lot of money to spend,” said Giri Cherukuri, a portfolio manager at Oakbrook Investments LLC in Lisle, Illinois, which holds Apple shares. ‘They have a big cash pile that you need to decide what do with.'”
Keoun, Kelly and Satariano report, “Tosi, 42, would have brought Apple more experience with corporate acquisitions. Blackstone, the world’s largest private equity firm, made more than 30 purchases last year, according to Bloomberg data. Apple made four, the data show. Tosi previously worked for Merrill Lynch & Co. and the business channel CNBC. He’s been Blackstone’s CFO since September 2008.”

“Apple said to have approached me, to become Chief Financial Officer.”
I am neither confirming, nor denying.
So you didn’t really denied the negative supposed rumor that could be a fact if that wasn’t because nobody can confirm it?
They also approached my mother. She told them to get their head out of their ass.
Retirement ?
Everyone wants to spend Apple’s money, but does Apple?
The interesting bit is not Apple luring this guy, but Apple planning a major acquisition.
They were looking for a new CFO ’cause they lost Oppy under the 51b cash pile. Getting tips from Chilean miners via his iPhone he finally tunneled a way out…
“…Officer Laurence Tosi to become its finance chief, three people with knowledge of the matter said…”
So Tosi paid these “three people with knowledge” to spread
these rumors so that he could be promoted to CEO or get a
huge raise in pay? Sounds about right to me.
WS wants another mole in apple. SHYSTERS trying to pressure apple thru their funds.
Just because he’s the Chief Financial Officer doesn’t mean that the position he’s being recruited for is CFO.
They’re trying to recruit Nancy Pelosi for the CFO post because she’s the only one who knows how to burn through $51 billion in short order.
Next up Larry Summers on how to rescue Microsoft by throwing $30 billion on making Windows work on ARM processors.
Who the F*%k cares?!!
They should recruit Ronald Reagan, who REALLY burned through money by creating the biggest budget deficits in this country’s history, but he’s dead. Thank goodness.
I think, it’s a helpful topic. I like this topic. I want know some helpful things from this side. It fresh my mind and experience. So lots of thanks for sharing this information with me.
