PayPal Spins Off Venmo Unit Amid Potential Sale Rumors
PayPal CEO Enrique Lores is reorganizing the company by spinning off Venmo into a distinct, standalone business unit. This restructuring is intended to improve visibility into Venmo's performance and prepare the segment for potential divestiture. PayPal plans to hire a dedicated digital banking executive to oversee the new Venmo division. Lores is implementing these changes to reignite growth amid intense competition from rivals like Apple, Google, and Stripe. Lores, who previously led HP, replaced Alex Chriss as the company's chief executive.
