Abbott names new CFO

Abbott named the current company controller and senior vice president of finance Robert Funck as the new CFO, effective March 1, according to a Jan. 8 Securities and Exchange Commission filing

Current CFO Brian Yoor told Abbott Jan. 3 he'd be retiring after more than four years in the role. 

It's the second major leadership change for Abbott in the last few months, as Miles White, Abbott CEO for 23 years, announced in November that he will step down March 31. Current COO Robert Ford will fill the CEO position. 

Mr. Funck has been with Abbott since 1987 and became a corporate officer in 2005. Before taking up controller responsibilities in 2013, he served as chief ethics and compliance officer as well as vice president of internal audit and treasurer.

Abbott did not specify in the filing who would take over Mr. Funck's role as controller.
