<p>I understand that one of the signatories required by AfriNIC to
manage certain reserves is that of a CFO. Who in the company plays
that role and provides that signature?<br>
<br>
Personally - I've always assumed that role was played by Patrisse.<br>
<br>
(If it looks like a CFO and acts like a CFO (etc) - it probably is
a CFO)<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>

</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>
<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>
