Jackson Chou, credit derivatives trader at Goldman Sachs in Tokyo, has left the firm, according to market officials. The reasons for his departure could not be determined by press time but officials noted that Chou has relocated to the U.S. At Goldman, he reported to Can Uran, executive director of global credit derivatives in Tokyo. Uran did not return calls and Chou could not be reached for comment.
Chou joined Goldman last year from Morgan Stanley to cover non-Japan Asia credits (DW, 6/17/01).
