SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Bear Stearns Cos. will cut about 4% of its personnel, or about 650 jobs, to reduce costs, the Associated Press reported Wednesday, citing an internal company memo. The news service said the memo explained the cuts were necessary to reposition the investment bank, but did not specify what departments would suffer the cuts. The AP, citing an anonymous source, reported the cuts would most likely affect the company's operations arm including its information technology and legal and compliance departments.
