Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer joins Goldman Sachs Board of Directors
Apple Chief Financial Officer Peter Oppenheimer has joined the Board of Directors of investment banking firm Goldman Sachs. Oppenheimer is an independent director for the company, and this has no effect on his current leadership position at Apple.
“Peter’s 25 years of broad experience across important industries will add a valuable perspective to our Board of Directors,” said Lloyd C. Blankfein, Chairman and CEO. “We appreciate his willingness to serve as a director and look forward to benefitting from his judgment and counsel.”
As an experienced CFO, Oppenheimer’s financial aptitude will likely be beneficial for the investment behemoth. “Oppenheimer will be a member of each of the firm’s Audit, Risk, Compensation and Corporate Governance, Nominating and Public Responsibilities committees,” according to Goldman Sachs…
Other top Apple executives serve on the Boards for other firms. Apple CEO Tim Cook still sits on Nike’s Board, while Apple Senior VP of Internet Software and ServicesEddy Cue is a member of car company Ferrari’s Board of Directors. A profile of Steve Jobs indicated that the Apple co-founder was against his senior leadership sitting on the Boards of other firms.
