Feb 12 (Reuters) – Goldman Sachs general counsel Kathy Ruemmler has resigned, CEO David Solomon said on Thursday, after documents released by the U.S. Justice Department last month showed Ruemmler accepted gifts from late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
“As one of the most accomplished professionals in her field, Kathy has also been a mentor and friend to many of our people, and she will be missed. I accepted her resignation, and I respect her decision,” Solomon said in a statement.
