Kathy Matsui
Managing Director
Goldman Sachs
She earned a master's degree at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies in Japanese Studies. After graduation, Matsui worked for Barclays de Zoete Wedd Securities in Tokyo. Although she was not looking to leave BZW, she joined Goldman Sachs in 1994 as the firm's chief Japan strategist, lured by the firm's global reach. Four years later, she was named a managing director, and in 2000, was invited to join the partnership.
Even before Matsui was ranked No. 1 in Japanese equity strategy by Institutional Investor in 2000 and 2001, she had risen to national prominence with her ground-breaking research piece, "Womenomics." Her thesis was that women, as both highly qualified producers in the work force and as consumers, were the great untapped resource for Japan's struggling economy.
Battle against cancer
Six years ago, after the birth of her daughter and her second top Institutional Investor analyst award, at a point when her personal and professional goals were falling into place, Matsui was diagnosed with stage II breast cancer. She had known she was at risk since her mother and both grandmothers had the disease, but she never expected it to strike her at the age of 36.
As she recovered after treatment, Matsui thought long and hard about returning to her fast-paced life. Members of her support group in California told her she was crazy to consider it--one even went as far as to tell her the stress would make her sick again. But Matsui decided that work would be her therapy.
She returned to work. After six months, she knew she had the strength to take up her former responsibilities, and she felt she would get back to her old form. Final confirmation came on the fifth anniversary of a clean bill of health. Once again, in 2006, Institutional Investor named her Japan's top-rated strategist. And as a woman who has battled cancer, and found a way to have a family and a world-class career while devoting herself to philanthropic causes that span the globe, Matsui admits that, on one level, the award is not what matters. Yet, on another level, "It was exciting to know that I could get back on top. For me it was my Tour de France, my Lance Armstrong."

Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) today announced that David H. Sidwell, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, has decided to retire from the Firm at the end of 2007. Colm Kelleher, who currently serves as the Head of Global Capital Markets, will replace Mr. Sidwell. Mr. Kelleher will join the Firm’s Management Committee and report to Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John J. Mack. Christopher Carter, who is currently Vice Chairman of Institutional Securities, will succeed Mr. Kelleher as Head of Global Capital Markets.
Mr. Sidwell, 54, joined Morgan Stanley in 2004. He has played a vital role in developing the Firm’s strategic growth plan and communicating it to the investment community. He also has played an important part in Morgan Stanley’s efforts to improve its risk-taking and capital allocation, which has helped the Firm deliver record financial performance in recent quarters.
Mr. Mack said, “David Sidwell has been a key member of our management team at Morgan Stanley and has helped lead the Firm through a period of significant change. His focus, insight and integrity have earned him tremendous credibility – both within Morgan Stanley and throughout the investment community. David informed me last year of his intention to retire, but agreed to stay on through the end of 2007 to ensure a smooth transition. I am pleased that in the months ahead, he will be working closely with Colm to help continue our positive momentum.”
Mr. Mack continued, “Colm Kelleher has proven himself a major asset to Morgan Stanley over the past 19 years, not only in his current role as Head of Global Capital Markets, but also as Co-Head of Fixed Income in Europe. He has been a leader in building client coverage teams and in advocating the further uniting of equity and debt capital markets. His experience as a business leader, combined with his training and expertise as a Chartered Accountant and his commitment to Morgan Stanley, make him extremely well-suited to serve in this critically important role.”
Mr. Sidwell said, “It has been a privilege to work with the talented team at Morgan Stanley, and play a part in our efforts to re-energize the Firm, improve its financial performance and lay a strong foundation for future profitable growth. Colm Kelleher brings a valuable business and client perspective along with accounting experience to the CFO post, and I look forward to working with him in the months ahead to continue building on Morgan Stanley’s success.”
