yahoo news | Watch Epstein 'Wasting My Time' From The Grave, Says Apollo's Rowan - Bloomberg

Apollo Global Management chief executive Marc Rowan told Bloomberg that his only interaction with the late Jeffrey Epstein was in his capacity as a tax adviser to Leon Black, the firm’s co‑founder. Rowan said Epstein’s comment that he was “wasting my time” from beyond the grave was directed at him, not at the firm.

Rowan clarified that he never engaged in any business dealings with Epstein. The discussion centered on the tax issues surrounding Black’s personal affairs, and Rowan’s role was limited to providing tax advice at the request of Black’s legal and financial teams.

In a follow‑up interview with Bloomberg Invest on March 3, Rowan reiterated that Apollo conducted no transactions or partnerships with the convicted sex offender. He emphasized that the firm’s operations remain entirely separate from Epstein’s criminal activities, underscoring that Apollo’s business decisions are driven solely by its own investment strategies and compliance standards.
