Morgan Stanley Hires In Japan to Build Private Equity

Morgan Stanley has hired Yoshihiko Shigenari to head the private equity unit in Japan.

This move signifies Morgan Stanley's revamping of their private equity division and suggests greater investment in a market left largely untapped by the company.
