March 18 Reuters Goldman Sachs39; Stephanie Cohen, global head of platform solutions, became the latest senior executive to depart the Wall Street giant on Monday after a 25yearlong stint.

Cohen, who joined the bank as an analyst in 1999 and was given the prestigious partner rank in 2014, was most recently in charge of the bank39;s consumer platforms, an internal memo showed.

The business has been under the spotlight, especially after Goldman decided to scale back its consumer ambitions, which CEO David Solomon had championed for years.

Cohen, who is taking a new role at cloud services company Cloudflare, had taken a leave of absence in June.

Her exit adds to a string of highprofile departures from Goldman Sachs in recent months, including global banking and markets cohead Jim Esposito, asset management executive Julian Salisbury and Dina Powell McCormick, former head of the sovereign business.

Cohen will become Cloudflare39;s first chief strategy officer, the cloud connectivity company said.

Her departure was first reported by the Wall Street Journal earlier on Monday.
