New Goldman Sachs Division

Based on the most helpful WSO content, Goldman Sachs has reorganized its investing activities into divisions like MBD (Merchant Banking Division), SSG (Special Situations Group), and MSI (Multi-Strategy Investments). These divisions focus on areas such as private equity, mezzanine debt, asset-backed securities, and private credit.

For private credit and equity, MBD raises significant outside capital for both equity and credit investing, acting as a general partner for these funds. SSG and MSI also play roles in alternative credit and equity strategies, with SSG often focusing on distressed or special situations.

If you're looking for more granular insights, such as recruitment paths or specific strategies, the WSO threads suggest that these teams often recruit from undergrad, MBA programs, or laterally from GS IBD or other PE firms. For further details, you might want to explore the following thread:
