(Reuters) - Equity International chief executive Gary Garrabrant has left the U.S. private equity firm for undisclosed reasons and company founder Sam Zell will act as the interim CEO, the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday.
Thomas McDonald, chief strategic officer, also exited the company, according to the paper.
Chicago-based Equity International did not confirm the departures.
But in a written statement made available to Reuters, Zell, the billionaire real estate investor who founded the company in 1999, said he is "actively engaged in the business" and Equity International had the ability to "contribute during this transition."
