Ken Jacobs could be named as CEO, one source said, adding that Steve Golub, currently interim CEO, may be tapped as chairman. Vice Chairman Gary Parr also could receive a leadership role, the newspaper reports. .

No decisions have been finalized and Lazard's board isn't expected to announce Wasserstein's successor for another two weeks, a source said.

A Lazard spokeswoman declined to comment for the newspaper.
