In a letter to employees, Fidelity president Abigail Johnson credited O’Hanley, 56, with helping stabilize the organization after the financial crisis. He joined the Boston financial giant in 2010 from BNY Asset Management, where he was chief executive.

“Having achieved much of what he intended to do, Ron has decided that it’s now time for him to move on,’’ Johnson said in the letter. “The Asset Management organization is performing well and is well-positioned for continued success.’’
