AFRINIC does not have a CFO at the moment</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>So you're saying Patrisse is "finance and accounts director", which is different from being CFO? Please explain this because I think this is where the confusion happens.</div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="auto"><div dir="auto"><div dir="auto">2. The role of interim CEO and CEO is not exactly the same.</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>That depends on what the board tells the interim CEO to do, but he's still holding the office of CEO.</div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="auto"><div dir="auto"><div dir="auto">3. I quote the following from your mail "<span style="color:rgb(128,0,128);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:12.8px">that nobody will take over the CFO role, and there will therefore not be a CFO while Mr Deesse takes the role of interim CEO."</span> </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Those words were yours as I never told you that in my offlist mail which you've decided to share publicly. I therefore<span style="font-family:sans-serif"> maintain that any Board member that tell you that is incorrect based on my point 1&2 above.</span></div></div></div>
</div></blockquote><br><div>So I misunderstood you in that you didn't mean that there's is no CFO while Patrisse is CEO, but you mean to say that there isn't a CFO at all?</div><div><br></div><div>Is Afrinic seeking a CFO, or is the finance and accounts director talking care of the duties that usually belong with a CFO?</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you for the clarification</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div>Sander</div></body></html>
