Last year, banks opened 2023 by forecasting layoffs, including for the investment bankers who suddenly had nothing to do following the pandemic-era M&A and IPO boom. Citigroup kicked off 2024 ominously, warning that it will lay off as many as 20,000 employees by 2026. The bank expects 2024 expenses to increase further to total $90 billion, up $2.8 billion from 2023, and much of that will be focused on hiring. CFO Barnum on Friday said the bank is gearing up for a "rebound in the investment banking wallet." Headcount declined 3% to 80,006 from 82,427, while compensation expenses rose to $24.5 billion from $23 billion.

A street sign for Wall Street is seen in the financial district in New York, U.S., November 8, 2021. Wells Fargo, which has reduced headcount for every quarter since the third quarter of 2020, said it still sees more opportunities for layoffs. Investment banking powerhouse Morgan Stanley also disclosed a near 2% drop in its total headcount on Wednesday, compared to the prior quarter. At the investment banks Goldman and Morgan Stanley expenses rose 18% and 5% in the quarter, compared to a year earlier. The bank in January dismissed 3,200 employees, its biggest round of layoffs since the 2008 financial crisis.

While regional banks carry the greatest exposure to the commercial real estate (CRE) sector, second quarter earnings show that a number of big banks have prepared for potential defaults, primarily on office loans. However, Borthwick noted the bank's office CRE exposure was low relative to its overall loan portfolio, at 2%. CRE loans represented just 15% of the bank's overall lending book, while only 1% of the CRE loan portfolio was office-related. WELLS FARGO (WFC.N)The bank said it had a $949 million increase in its allowance for credit losses, primarily CRE office loans. WEBSTER FINANCIAL CORP (WBS.N)The regional bank's nonperforming CRE loans ticked up to $47.9 million last quarter from $35.8 million in the first quarter.

Wall Street earnings season has been challenging across the board, but perhaps none have had it as tough as Goldman Sachs. "This moment in the economic cycle creates meaningful headwinds for Goldman Sachs and our business mix. Here are the five numbers explaining the complex story of Goldman Sachs' second-quarter earnings and its shift from consumer banking to asset management fees.

David Solomon has been Goldman Sachs' CEO for over four years since succeeding Lloyd Blankfein. There's been a lot of talk about the morale at Goldman Sachs. Solomon said there were fewer "partner transitions at Goldman Sachs" in 2022 than any year "going back to 2014." Meanwhile, Solomon's expensive foray into consumer banking raised the ire of some longtime Goldman partners, as Insider has previously reported. The fresh faces among the Goldman Sachs executives who took the stage at the bank's investor day highlight the leadership changes under Solomon.

☆ Goldman Sachs Sheds Consumer Loans as Losses Mount
▼ + stars: | 2023-04-18 | by ( Rob Copeland | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

How much will it cost for Goldman Sachs to extricate itself from a mistake? Goldman said it had sold off some of those down-market loans and conceded defeat on others, to the tune of nearly $500 million in losses. In October, the firm cleaved its wobbling consumer offerings, including credit card partnerships and interest-earning accounts, into a separate division. Three months later, the bank disclosed more than $3 billion in losses tied to that business over the previous years. Even for a lender as large as Goldman, the continuous bleeding is no small matter.

April 18 (Reuters) - Goldman Sachs Group Inc's (GS.N) profit fell 19% as dealmaking and bond trading slumped in the first quarter and it lost money on the sale of some assets in its consumer business. Goldman booked a $470 million loss on the sale of some loans from Marcus, dragging down first quarter results. The logo for Goldman Sachs is seen on the trading floor at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York City, New York, U.S., November 17, 2021. But deposits held in the Marcus business remain core to Goldman and are not under review, a source familiar with the matter had told Reuters earlier this year. Goldman's lackluster trading results contrast with those of Bank of America Corp (BAC.N), which also reported earnings on Tuesday.

David Solomon has been Goldman Sachs' CEO for more than four years since succeeding Lloyd Blankfein. There's been a lot of talk about the morale at Goldman Sachs. In reality, Solomon said, there were fewer "partner transitions at Goldman Sachs" in 2022 than any year "going back to 2014." "At the moment, year-to-date, our turnover is at a 5-year low, not just for partners, in the whole firm," Solomon added. Here is a running list of Goldman's partners that have retired from the firm — or moved on to roles at other companies — since Solomon became CEO.

☆ The bloodletting at Goldman Sachs might not be done yet as the bank looks for more ways to cut costs

If you're a Goldman Sachs' employee who made it through the company's recent layoffs, be warned: There could be more to come. Anyone hoping Goldman's fourth-quarter earnings report would represent a fresh start for the bank was sorely disappointed. Today should provide some hints at to how the bank will navigate things, as Goldman is set to inform employees on their year-end bonuses. Steve Pagliuca, the PE firm's co-chairman, is retiring, The Wall Street Journal reports. Read more on how Wall Street analysts got it so wrong.

Here are four key takeaways from fourth-quarter earnings that could influence Goldman Sachs' cost-cutting efforts in 2023. In the fourth quarter, they were 66% higher compared to last year, although they fell from the quarter prior. Cutting expenses through attritionTo be sure, Goldman Sachs might not have to resort to more job cuts as it looks to slim down expenses in 2023. Goldman Sachs will begin announcing annual incentive rewards on Wednesday. Goldman Sachs could also gently push employees, particularly higher-level executives, out the door.

☆ Some Goldman Sachs bankers were laid off after being told to attend meetings under 'false pretenses,' report says

Goldman Sachs staff were emailed calendar invites for fake business meetings, per the New York Post. Meetings were set as early as 7:30 a.m. and some junior bankers were given 30 minutes to leave. An insider told the Post that one colleague was let go after coming in early for a meeting "put on his calendar under false pretenses." The publication reported that many senior staff were told earlier in the week about their roles, while more junior staff were "cut with little fanfare" on Wednesday. A Goldman Sachs spokesperson told Insider in a statement: "We know this is a difficult time for people leaving the firm.

The cuts come after Goldman's investment bank logged a 41% dip in year-over-year revenues in July. Goldman Sachs has started wielding the axe at its investment bank. The job cuts are likely to echo across Wall Street, particularly within investment-banking divisions like capital markets and M&A advisory, bankers told me. US lawmakers pressed bank chief executives on reports of fraud on the Zelle payments network. Wall Street is completely delusional about the pain that is coming for the stock market.

Its tech, media, and telecom division has suffered roughly a dozen layoffs, Insider has learned. The news will fuel growing anxiety about cuts as Wall Street prepares third-quarter results. The TMT layoffs are part of a broader cost-cutting effort at Goldman that is resulting in layoffs across other investment banking teams and in offices around the world. Economic conditions are hammering Wall Street as public valuations tank, fears of a recession mount, and corporate confidence to get deals done dwindles. For the time being, the IPO market continues to remain stalled — creating further reason for worry as Wall Street prepares to report third-quarter earnings next month.
