I don't know anything about what happened, but something doesn't add up. Why would a CFO of a successful company resign just because he doesn't have global banking experience? Sounds like BS.

Large organizations generally provide people at the C-level options to tender their resignation rather than hitting the news with supposed firing (or letting go). Firing connotes a lot of negativity as well as from a public relations perspective, they want to ensure that this process would generate the least amount of noise.

Generally yes, but those are formal announcements, where the title is not ,,Let me set the record straight''.

It's like saying that I'll be honest with you, and continue lying.
