There are a few groups within investing
Special Situation is one. There is also the distressed/high yield investing group, the Bank debt investing group and the Re-insurance group (basically Goldman's insurance agency). They make longer term investments with the bank's own capital
Thanks!
Anybody knows of the prestige and hours of this division?
Goldman Sachs SSG is still one of the best divisions at Goldman from what I've heard, probably only one notch below TMT M&A.
MSI, SSG are both sick groups at Goldman.
Goldman Sachs Securities Division Equity Trading: what do they do now? (Originally Posted: 01/16/2016)
Hey all,
Anyone know what the GS's Equity Trading does these days post-Volcker? I am talking about cash equities, not derivatives and not sales trading.
Market making stocks and with a overlay of position / prop trading? Any fundamental analysis required, or just pure reactionary trading? Any long term positions allowed or all very short term?
Anyone with a little insight would be great.
Thanks! CK
