Morgan Stanley Wealth Management Initiates Management Restructuring in Southern New Jersey and New York City

From the desk of Jim Eccleston at Eccleston Law 

In an internal announcement this week, Morgan Stanley unveiled what it portrays as a strategic reorganization in Southern New Jersey and New York City, with the net result being that Christopher W. Shaw, a Morgan Stanley veteran, and manager in Southern New Jersey, will step down.

Morgan Stanley will split Shaw's territory into two geographies, including a new Coastal New Jersey market and doubling oversight of the area, according to AdvisorHub.
