Goldman Sachs Group

Goldman Sachs is poised to earn significant underwriting fees from Anthropic's IPO and aims to convert newly liquid founders, executives and employees into long-term wealth-management clients. The bank views the deal as part of its "One Goldman Sachs" strategy to build steadier, recurring revenue amid volatile investment-banking and trading income. Goldman faces competition from Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan and others, but its deep C-suite relationships and prior success in funneling IPO-generated assets into wealth channels underpin the strategy. A strong Anthropic debut could also revive IPO momentum and create further client acquisition opportunities for Goldman. » Mais em cnbc.com

Tibor Kossa (49) has been appointed partner at Goldman Sachs and is the only German among 109 promoted bankers. Kossa has led investment banking for Germany and Austria since May 2024 and previously, as co‑head of M&A, played a key role in the bank’s top position in the German market. He has overseen several billion‑euro transactions, including the sale of Schenker to DSV, the Praxair/Linde merger, advising on Qiagen/EQT, and advising Lufthansa on TAP. The promotion reflects his importance to Goldman’s market share in Germany and reaffirms the traditional significance of the partner role within the bank. » Mais em handelsblatt.com

Goldman Sachs appointed 109 new partners but, for the first time in years, did not publish a breakdown by demographic characteristics. The bank continues to stress the importance of diversity, but attributes the omission of the figures to the changed legal environment after President Trump's reelection. The decision drew criticism, even though more than 100 of roughly 500 partners are expected to be women going forward and 85 percent of the promoted partners work in high-revenue areas. » Mais em handelsblatt.com

Goldman Sachs reports shares and financial instruments that together amount to 28.28 percent of voting rights in LEG, while the bank directly holds only 0.55 percent. A further 27.73 percent relates to call options, repurchase/recovery rights, usage rights and swaps; the largest position is call options on 11.6 million shares (15.09 percent), which expire on 19 November 2026. Financial sources say Goldman Sachs built the position mainly on behalf of clients, meaning the transaction is viewed as intermediary support in the context of the recent entry of Grand City Properties (20.04 percent). » Mais em handelsblatt.com

Goldman Sachs disclosed shares and financial instruments that together correspond to 28.28% of the voting rights in LEG Immobilien, after the previously reported position was 4.54%. The bank directly holds only 0.55%; a further 27.73% is attributable to call options, reclamation rights, usage rights and swaps, including call options on 11.6 million shares (15.09% of the share capital) expiring on 19 November 2026. Experts suspect Goldman Sachs is acting as a financial intermediary on behalf of third parties, possibly to support Grand City Properties (which holds 20.04% of LEG); no strategic proprietary interest of the bank can be inferred from the filing. » Mais em handelsblatt.com
