Morgan Stanley chief executive James Gorman will step down as the company’s head within the next 12 months, he said Friday at the bank’s annual shareholder meeting
“The specific timing of the CEO transition has not been determined, but it is the Board’s and my expectation that it will occur at some point in the next 12 months. That is the current expectation in the absence of a major change in the external environment,” Gorman said Friday. Gorman, who is one of the longest-serving heads of a US bank, became CEO in January 2010.
Australian-born Gorman succeeded John Mack at the company’s helm after the 2008 financial crisis that saw the company suffer billions of dollars in losses and take hits to its key businesses, including its investment banking and asset management divisions. Gorman is largely credited with leading a sweeping transformation of Morgan Stanley that saw the bank bulk up its wealth management business and diversify away from risk.
