Private Wealth Management

Private Banking
Goldman Sachs offers a full range of private banking services, allowing high-net-worth clients to consolidate the management of their financial assets with one firm and to maximize their access to flexible financing alternatives. Some of the more prominent services include:

• Loans to finance our clients' investment activities and personal needs
• Deposit products at highly competitive rates
• Payment services without fees that minimize idle funds

Our Private Banking services offer the flexibility to leverage assets and other sources of repayment to meet cash flow and borrowing needs. Additionally, we integrate all of the banking services with our investment capabilities and provide clients with the enhanced control and convenience of managing their entire wealth on one consolidated Web site and one monthly statement.

Goldman Sachs Private Banking is not organized as a separate legal entity and is a generic name used by Private Wealth Management. Payment services are offered through Goldman, Sachs & Co., member SIPC/FINRA. Fees may apply in certain cases which are listed in the account agreement. Deposits are offered through The Goldman Sachs Bank USA, member FDIC. Loans may be offered by Goldman Sachs Bank USA, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or one of their affiliates.

• Sophisticated diversification, risk and tax management
• Specialized global investment expertise
• Experienced trust professionals
• Administration and implementation of innovative wealth-transfer structures
