How the research score works
The overall score is a weighted research judgment covering business quality, fundamental strength, growth catalysts, valuation, technical condition, and downside risk. A high score does not eliminate risk, and a low score does not guarantee poor performance.
Company overview
Goldman Sachs is a global investment bank and financial services firm operating primarily through investment banking, global markets trading, and asset and wealth management, after retreating from its earlier consumer banking ambitions.
Business model
Goldman earns fees from advising on mergers and capital raises, trading revenue from its global markets division, and management fees from its growing asset and wealth management business. Trading and banking revenue can be more variable, while asset and wealth management provides steadier fee income.
Growth drivers
- Recovery in mergers, acquisitions, and IPO activity
- Growth in assets under supervision in wealth management
- Market share gains in trading and financing
- Private capital and alternatives fundraising
Competitive position
Goldman's brand, talent, and client relationships across corporations, governments, and institutional investors give it a leading position in advisory and trading. Its return to a more focused business mix has improved returns after the consumer banking retreat.
Risks
Investment banking and trading revenue are cyclical and tied to market conditions and deal activity. Regulatory capital requirements, competition from other large banks, and market volatility can all pressure results in weaker periods.
Valuation
Goldman typically trades on a price to book and return on equity basis relative to other large banks, with the multiple reflecting confidence in its ability to sustain higher returns after refocusing the business.
Final view
Overall rating: 78/100
Goldman Sachs looks like a cleaner, more focused franchise after stepping back from consumer banking. My view is positive given its leading position in banking and trading, with deal activity cycles being the main swing factor for near term results.
