Banker Moelis resigns after viral video shows him beating woman. The CEO of Moelis & Co. Jonathan Kaye resigned from the company after a widely circulated video showed him punching a woman in Brooklyn.
Kaye, who led the investment bank’s global corporate operations, has left the company, according to a Moelis spokeswoman.
His profile was also removed from the company’s website. The millionaire investment manager who punched a woman in the face at a Brooklyn Pride event earlier this month has resigned, the company announced Monday.
Jonathan Kaye, global business director at Moelis & Co. in Manhattan, was caught punching an anti-Israel protester in Park Slope on June 8 in the video, which quickly went viral. The boutique company put him on hiatus shortly after the incident.
