Goldman fined $7 million by ECB over credit risk reporting

FRANKFURT, May 15 (Reuters) - The European Central Bank said on Monday it had fined Goldman Sachs' (GS.N) European unit 6.63 million euros ($7.3 million) for underreporting the risk associated with some corporate credit, thereby flattering its balance sheet. The ECB, the euro zone's top banking supervisor, said Goldman Sachs Bank Europe misclassified some corporate exposures for eight straight quarters in 2019-21, assigning a lower risk to them than the rules prescribe. Goldman Sachs did not immediately respond to a request for comment. So called risk weights determine how much capital a bank needs to cover the risk associated with an asset. By attaching lower risk weights to some assets, Goldman Sachs Bank Europe "reported higher capital ratios than it should have done", the ECB said.
