Morgan Stanley has unveiled its new crop of managing directors. At 144, it’s the smallest number since 2008 and just 17.4% are women.
We’ve analysed the list and tried to ascertain which divisions and countries the newly-minted MDs hail from. Investment banking again dominates, but those working in Morgan Stanley’s much-valued wealth management functions – which escaped the majority of job cuts – have also featured highly.
The US and UK again provide the bulk of this year's MDs, but a high proportion also work in Asia. However, Hong Kong houses more senior Morgan Stanley bankers than Singapore.
Despite all the talk of technology replacing employees in the front office, the IT division of Morgan Stanley remains under-represented in the top ranks. Just 10 people, or 7% of the total, work in a technology function. This compares favourably with Goldman Sachs, though, where just 3% of this year’s MDs worked in IT.
Morgan Stanley would not comment on which divisions or countries the MDs came from.
The list isn’t completely comprehensive, so if you know of any more details, please feel free to comment below.
