For a banker, cinching a managing director title is a milestone, but the climb doesn't stop there.

To keep senior leaders interested, Wall Street firms can keep offering promotions, which also helps to make sure rising stars don't get stuck behind long-serving execs.

JPMorgan has elevated a new wave of senior bankers in its investment banking arm to a new leadership group — the executive committee of global chairs. The shakeup was first reported by Reuters.

Execs, many of whom were regional and product heads, will join the committee which will be led by executive chairman Carlos Hernandez, who until now was head of global investment banking.

While the global chair title isn't new, the committee is.

Members of the committee will be tasked with relationship management of the firms top clients as well as bringing in new business — "rainmakers," in industry lingo. Committee members will be handing over day-to-day management to the next crop of business leaders.

Across Wall Street, firms are establishing relationship-focused committees and working groups, hoping to cross-sell different business units — like investment banking and wealth management — to clients in a hyper-competitive industry.

For example, last year JPMorgan hired four Silicon Valley Bank execs to form a VC client coverage group housed in its commercial bank that would find ways to offer services across the bank's investment banking, wealth management, and asset management arms to drive more business.

Goldman Sachs has employed a similar strategy across its divisions. The bank's investment banking arm took Spotify public in 2018, and now counts several current and former Spotify execs as wealth management clients.

Hernandez will hand over the reins as JPMorgan's global head of investment banking to newly appointed co-heads Jim Casey and Vis Raghavan.

With more than 30 years at the investment bank, Hernandez will continue to oversee the investment banking arm. Both Casey and Raghavan will report directly to Hernandez.

And other appointments to the executive committee left some open spots across investment banking leadership.

Here's a look at the committee members and the newly promoted execs leading JPMorgan's M&A, debt, and equity capital markets businesses, according to a JPMorgan memo viewed by Business Insider.
