Goldman Sachs partners are leaving — some 202 during David Solomon's five years as CEO by Insider's calculation. In particular, before Solomon, Goldman nurtured many fiefs and then spread the wealth from the most successful ones across the firm. Of the former Goldman executives that Insider interviewed, here are the most cited reasons they gave for leaving Goldman. When both men struggled, senior partners left, and Goldman stumbled in its efforts to wind down its balance-sheet investments. Goldman Sachs partners are paid well by any standard: $950,000 in base salary and often multiples of that in annual bonuses.

☆ Goldman Sachs unloads another business acquired under CEO David Solomon

Goldman Sachs said Monday that it agreed to sell its personal financial management unit to a competitor named Creative Planning. The bank declined to disclose the sale price for its PFM business. Goldman said in February that it only had about 1% of the high net worth market, or those who have between $1 million and $10 million to invest. The sale "allows us to focus on the execution of our premier ultra-high net worth wealth management and workplace growth strategy" while continuing to support high net worth clients through a strategic partnership with Creative Planning, he said. Selling the PFM business will help boost profit margins in Goldman's asset and wealth management division, Jefferies analysts led by Daniel Fannon wrote Monday in a research note.

☆ Goldman Sachs weighs selling part of wealth business in broad strategy revamp

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. The purchase was aimed at broadening Goldman's client list beyond the ultra-rich, but the unit has remained a small part of the bank's wealth business. High net worth individuals - who would fall within the business Goldman is considering selling - typically have about $1 million to $10 million to invest. Goldman's wealth business has lagged behind rivals, including Morgan Stanley (MS.N), where CEO James Gorman built the wealth management arm through a series of acquisitions that generate steady income from fees. The bank plans to grow its core wealth business serving ultra-high-net-worth clients, reiterating aspirations from its investor day in late February.

The purchase aimed to broaden Goldman's client list beyond the ultra-rich, but the unit has remained a small part of the bank's wealth business. The potential divestments come after CEO David Solomon reorganized the firm into three units last year and scaled back ambitions for its loss-making consumer business. Goldman's wealth business has lagged rivals, including Morgan Stanley (MS.N), where CEO James Gorman built the wealth management arm through a series of acquisitions that generate steady income from fees.

Other core wealth businesses include workplace financial planning through Ayco, and Marcus savings, Goldman said.
