A copy of the Company’s press release containing this information is being furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information furnished pursuant to this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that Section and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act.
Item 5.02Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On July 28, 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors appointed Mary Ann Betsch, age 43, as Chief Financial Officer and a Managing Director of the Company and Lazard Group LLC (“Group”), effective October 3, 2022.
Previously, since 2018, Ms. Betsch served as a Managing Director at Citadel, which is not a parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company or Group, where Ms. Betsch helped lead Citadel’s financing and accounting functions. She began her career over 20 years ago at PricewaterhouseCoopers, where she held audit and advisory roles, serving global investment banks and other financial institutions.
On July 27, 2022, Group entered into a letter agreement with Ms. Betsch (the “Letter Agreement”) with respect to her employment. Generally, Ms. Betsch’s service under the Letter Agreement may be terminated by either party; provided that Ms. Betsch must provide three months’ written notice of her intention to terminate employment. The Letter Agreement provides that Ms. Betsch will receive an annual base salary of $750,000 and a discretionary bonus in respect of calendar year 2022, a portion of which will be granted in the same form of deferred compensation and in comparable proportion as is paid to other executive officers of Group. In addition, as an inducement to accept Group’s offer, and in further consideration of certain restrictions, Ms. Betsch will receive a sign-on bonus equal to $250,000, subject to repayment if Ms. Betsch resigns within 12 months after commencing employment. While providing services to Group and for six months thereafter, Ms. Betsch will be subject to restrictive covenants prohibiting competition with Group or any of its affiliates and solicitation of their clients and employees.
The preceding summary of the Letter Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Letter Agreement attached as Exhibit 10.1, as though such agreement were fully set forth herein.

This page provides Lazard Inc. (LAZ) earnings call transcripts from SEC 8-K filings along with AI-powered predictions for post-earnings price movements. Our machine learning models analyze historical earnings data, pre-earnings price patterns, volume changes, and volatility to predict 1-day, 5-day, and 20-day returns after each earnings release.
Earnings transcripts are sourced directly from SEC EDGAR filings. Predictions are generated using gradient boosting models trained on LAZ's historical earnings reactions. All predicted returns are shown as percentages, and predicted prices are calculated from the closing price at the time of prediction. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
