Scrutineer: Vodafone's perennial trier faces a setback
|
THIS never used to happen to the other guy." Arun Sarin of
Vodafone could be forgiven such a reflection on the contrasting
fortunes of him and predecessor Sir Christopher Gent in the mobile
phones takeover arena.
During his tenure at Vodafone, Gent was a successful one-man
acquisitive cyclone, sometimes sounding (and looking) more like an
investment banker than a FTSE 100 chief executive.
If there was a deal to be done you could bet your direct-dial that
it would probably go Gent's way, helped not a little by Vodafone's
immeasurably healthier share price in those far-off pre-millennium
days.
