NEW YORK (Reuters) - Stacy Bash-Polley, who plays a key role with clients in Goldman Sachs Group Inc's GS.N trading business, plans to retire at year-end, according to an internal memo sent on Tuesday.

Bash-Polley joined the Wall Street bank in 1994 and held several roles in its fixed income trading business before becoming head of client relationship management a few years ago.

Goldman Sachs trading co-heads Ashok Varadhan, Marty Chavez and Jim Esposito cited Bash-Polley as role model to women at Goldman and in the financial services industry in the memo, which was seen by Reuters.
