Morgan Stanley has appointed Huss and Watson as co-heads of the firm's strategy and execution unit.

According to an internal memo, Morgan Stanley has appointed Min Huss and Anjelica Kelly Watson as co-heads of the firm’s strategy and execution.

They will replace Sebastiano “Sid” Visentini, who has stepped down from the role, and will be responsible for advising on Morgan Stanley’s own acquisitions and developing growth strategies and other initiatives.

Huss has worked in the division for the past eight years, focusing on driving the firm’s strategic growth agenda. The memo shows Watson recently served as chief of staff to executive chairman James P. Gorman.

“Min and Anjelica’s broad knowledge and deep expertise make them well suited to lead this function together,” said co-presidents Andy Saperstein and Dan Simkowitz.

A representative of Morgan Stanley confirmed the memo.
