Leon Henderson

Managing Director, Global Sports and Entertainment Director, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management

For nearly three decades, Leon has guided ultra-high-net-worth individuals, families, and institutions through the complexities of global investing. As a Managing Director at Morgan Stanley, he delivers institutional-grade resources and bespoke strategies that can help empower clients to preserve, grow, and protect their wealth.


Leon focuses on large-cap core equity portfolio management with a clear philosophy: help grow returns, preserve principal. Known for his clarity and calm in volatile markets, he distills complex financial data into meaningful guidance, always putting client interests first.


As a Global Sports & Entertainment Director, Leon also serves athletes and public figures whose careers involve unique challenges, such as fluctuating income, early peaks, and heightened public scrutiny. Clients appreciate not just his discretion and strategic insights—but his genuine understanding of their world.


Leon began his career at Goldman Sachs after earning his MBA from Harvard Business School. He holds a degree in Architecture from Howard University, where he learned that sound design, like investing, requires disciplined planning, analytical rigor, and creative thinking.


A Buffalo native and the son of educators, Leon brings the same discipline to client relationships that he once brought to athletics and architecture. Outside of work, he supports the arts, serves on multiple civic and alumni boards, and is a proud fan of the Buffalo Bills and Los Angeles Clippers.
