Goldman Sachs's (GS) co-head of global equities and trades to retire

Goldman Sachs's (GS) co-head of global equities and trades to retire

Goldman Sachs Group's co-head of global equities trades and execution services, Brian Levine, will retire this summer, according to a memo. The bank also said that Philip Berlinski and Jeff Nedelman were being named co-chief operating officers of global equities with Michael Daffey. The three will jointly lead global equities. 

Berlinski had been Levine’s co-head overseeing global equities trades and execution services, and Nedelman had been the global head of prime services. Levine joined the bank’s shares trading desk 25 years ago.
