Rajeev Misra to Exit Key SoftBank Leadership Roles, Ending a Chapter of High-Stakes Investment

Rajeev Misra will be stepping down from his leadership roles at SoftBank’s primary technology investment entities, marking the departure of one of the Japanese conglomerate’s most influential dealmakers. SoftBank executives confirmed that Misra would no longer hold an official role within the company.

SoftBank announced on Tuesday that Misra, who had guided the $100 billion Vision Fund through both rapid growth and significant setbacks, would be leaving his posts as co-head of SoftBank Investment Advisers and SoftBank Global Advisers. Alex Clavel will take over as the sole CEO of both divisions.

This transition follows Misra’s earlier exit from SoftBank Group’s executive team in August 2022, when he relinquished his roles as corporate officer and executive vice president at the parent company. That same year, Misra, a former Deutsche Bank executive, launched One Investment Management, a $6 billion fund supported by Abu Dhabi.
