	Goldman, Sachs & Co.: Lit. Rel. No. 18113 / April 28, 2003
		Goldman Sachs compensated its analysts based at least in part upon their participation in the firm's investment banking-related activities.
		Goldman Sachs analysts participated in investment banking marketing efforts, including working with investment bankers to prepare "pitch" materials and in some cases attending the pitch meetings.
		Goldman Sachs also has agreed as part of this settlement to retain, at its own expense, an Independent Monitor to conduct a review to provide reasonable assurance that the firm is complying with the structural reforms.

	AlterNet: Environment: The Greening of Goldman Sachs
		While Goldman Sachs explained that it had simply acted on a "rare opportunity for the firm to benefit global conservation," many people found it hard to trust such a gesture of generosity from a financial institution.
		Goldman Sachs is positioning itself to be a leader in the green energy sector.
		Maybe Goldman Sachs is the "gold standard" in investment firms for the same reason that it is forward-looking in its sensitivity to environmental concerns: that the leadership of the company is using its brains.

	Goldman Sachs: Oil Could Spike to $105 \| EnergyBulletin.net \| Peak Oil News Clearinghouse
		Goldman Sachs is the biggest trader of energy derivatives, and its Goldman Sachs Commodities Index is a widely-watched barometer of energy and commodities prices.
		Goldman pointed out thin spare capacity in the energy supply chain, and long response times for bringing on supply additions, as well as robust demand in the United States and in developing heavyweights China and India, despite the recent rapid increase in energy costs.
		Goldman said that were it to assume gasoline spending needed to reach 1970s levels to destroy demand, its upside super-spike estimate would be $135 per barrel for New York crude.

		Goldman's may be primarily a money-making outfit - and a prodigiously good one at that - but it does its best to encourage its employees to think in the long-term.

	Goldman Sachs delays vote on banning stock option awards - MarketWatch
		Goldman delayed the options vote because the proposal was left out off the Feb. 21 proxy document sent outlining the annual meeting agenda.
		The proposal would bar Goldman from granting options to "anyone" because the awards "have gone out of hand in recent years," Davis's proposal says, and create distortions in managing the company because options can be tied to short-term earnings gains.
		Goldman's directors oppose the plan because it would put the investment bank "at a disadvantage in retaining, motivating and recruiting employees," the proxy said.

	Goldman Sachs Makes Rich Richer, Protests Mensex - Gawker
		Sure, tiny downtown banking concern Goldman Sachs named 115 new partnership managing director partner manager people, a title which confers some kind of bajillionaire shield upon those lucky enough to receive it.
		There are first details at DealBreaker about which of these folk you should immediately try to sleep with, and Intelligencer points out that despite the heaps of cash, this is really the signal to bail from the firm and plow new rows elsewhere.
		Even though the Dutchie says he will fight for his new spot (Goldman Sachs has already filed another complaint), he's also repurposed the venture with the generic name "City of Love." This is the kind of entrepreneurial drive the new partners at GS should respect, before they crush him.

	Good deal: Average Goldman Sachs employee makes $622,000 - The Boston Globe
		The big pay day at Goldman Sachs is the product of a big year on Wall Street and an even bigger year for Goldman, which yesterday reported the highest annual profits ever for a securities firm.
		And not every Goldman employee will make $622,000, since the average is skewed by top traders and investment bankers who can make millions.
		Goldman Sachs, Kothari added, is the "creme de la creme" of Wall Street securities firms, attracting the top talent in the industry and paying for it.

	Goldman Sachs' Green Touch [Fool.com] March 27, 2007
		As you may recall, Goldman also had a large supporting role in the private equity bid for TXU (NYSE: TXU), the Texas energy company, and most likely played an integral role in helping broker the deal with environmental groups to limit the number of new coal plants that TXU would build.
		For investors interested in clean tech, I would further suggest that Goldman Sachs, while by absolutely no means a "clean tech" pure play, represents a unique opportunity to diversify one's portfolio while still offering some exposure to the alternative energy market.
		Fool contributor Jack Uldrich admits to being green about all of the aspects of Goldman Sachs' business, which is why he is not yet an investor in the company.

	What's so special about Goldman Sachs? - By Daniel Gross - Slate Magazine
		Goldman's chief assets are people—really rich people who can afford to retire or who can easily find lucrative employment elsewhere.
		To rise to the top at Goldman, you have to be a centrist statesman with demonstrated operating competencies, firm ideas about where to take the company, and an ability to assuage, coddle, accommodate, and lead massive egos.
		Although Goldman Sachs was a party to the Wall Street research settlement, it emerged from the scandals in better shape than many of its rivals.

		That may seem low for an institution bearing the stature of Goldman, but it is in fact at the high end of Goldman's historical P/E range of 12 to 15 P/E. On a price-to-book-value basis, $250 also seems an ambitious target for 2007.

	Amazon.com: Goldman Sachs: The Culture of Success: Books: Lisa J. Endlich (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Goldman Sachs is an intriguing history of the company that invented such financial tools as block trading, commercial paper, and risk arbitrage.
		Goldman Sachs, in most years the most profitable investment bank in the country, also holds the distinction of being the last major partnership among investment banks on Wall Street with partners earning tens of millions of dollars.
		Endlich is the victim of bad timing: her lively account of Goldman management's decision to take the company public in the summer of 1998 is rendered somewhat moot by the fact that those plans were derailed by the sudden (and so far brief) bear market.
