Christianson will remain as an advisory director for Morgan Stanley once she steps down, advising the bank and its clients on China, the note said.

Gokul Laroia, the regional co-CEO with Christianson since 2014, will become the sole CEO for Asia Pacific, not including Japan. Laroia, who has been with Morgan Stanley since 1995, is also the co-head of global equities.

He has held senior roles at Morgan Stanley across investment banking coverage, M&A, capital markets and sales and trading.

A Morgan Stanley spokesman confirmed the contents of the memo.
