Goldman Sachs chief executive David Solomon has asked general counsel Kathryn Ruemmler to stay at the firm as an adviser after she steps down, Bloomberg reported on 5 June, citing people with knowledge of the matter.

Ruemmler, Goldman's chief legal officer and general counsel, said in February 2026 that she would leave on 30 June after documents released by the US Justice Department in the Epstein files showed her ties to Epstein. Solomon said at the time that he had reluctantly accepted her resignation.
