Here are some details:

• Both Asl and Weir have had a two-decade long career at Goldman Sachs. Weir most recently was managing director of Investment Strategy Group, Asset & Wealth Management.
• Mossavar-Rahmani will work with the Investment Strategy Group and wealth management teams over the coming months to ensure a smooth transition, the memo said.
