The bank took a writedown of $504 million tied to its GreenSky business and $485 million related to its consolidated real estate investments.
It was Goldman's lowest quarterly profit since the second quarter of 2020.
Trading revenue for fixed income, currency and commodities fell 26%, while equities trading revenue was broadly unchanged.
On Tuesday, Goldman's peer Morgan Stanley (MS.N) said its investment banking revenue was in line with last year, but the trading business had weakened.
However, uncertainty about the trajectory of the economy continues to be a hurdle with global mergers and acquisitions activity falling 36% from last year in the second quarter.
