The announcement, in a memo from Mary Erdoes, CEO for Asset & Wealth Management, said that David Frame will become chief of U.S. Wealth Management and that Nicolas Aguzin, will handle Sommers’ international responsibilities.

Aguzin is currently head of banking for the Asia-Pacific region for JPMorgan’s Corporate & Investment Bank.
