Sherritt appoints finance veteran interim CFO to steer through Cuba challenges

Having warned shareholders of acute financial, legal and operational challenges ahead owing to US sanctions in Cuba last month, TSX-listed Sherritt International Corporation has appointed Fitzroy Richardson as interim CFO effective immediately. The company explains Richardson’s appointment will provide experienced financial leadership as the corporation works to complete its outstanding quarterly filings, an important step toward seeking a revocation of a failure-to-file cease trade order issued by the Ontario Securities Commission on May 21.
