Our hearts go out to the Ukrainian people and all those standing in harm’s way – their bravery and resilience are an inspiration to the world. None of us can fail to see this for what it is: the invasion of a sovereign state, as flagrant a violation of international law as any we’ve seen in recent memory. Hundreds of thousands have been forced to flee their homes, Ukrainian cities have suffered massive destruction, and already there has been tragic loss of life. I know that this remains an extremely daunting and difficult time for many of our people, as well as for family and friends. As a leadership team, we continue to support our people through dedicated guidance and resources for our colleagues in impacted areas. In addition, our firm has been focused on how we can help communities impacted by the conflict. We announced a $2 million commitment to organizations providing emergency assistance to Ukrainian families, such as food, clothing and hygiene kits, as well as vital medical care and other forms of support to people who have to leave their homes. Our commitment builds on the donations already made to date via Goldman Sachs Gives, our donor-advised fund. Goldman Sachs is winding down its business in Russia in compliance with regulatory and licensing requirements. We are focused on supporting our clients across the globe in managing or closing out pre-existing obligations in the market. As we navigate this fluid and challenging environment, I want to thank all of our people for their hard work and diligence.
Well done and we’ll stated!
This move matters, I am not a fan of Wall Street as usual and this move away from Oligarchs, away from totalitarian regimes, away from fossil fuels and war matters. Hats off. We need GS on the right side of history banking for the people. I hope we can count on your continued support. Not all banks or businesses will survive this huge moment of disruption. Please join the larger rebellion and work with the people, for the future.
Why only Russia Invades = War And also where your Heart/Sympothy goes When many people died in Afghanistan when USA gifted the country(Afghanistan) to Taliban(Terrorists) and also where your sympothy goes when many people's died in SERIA due to USA intervention. WHY WE ALWAYS SAID THAT WEST/USA IS TAKING GOOD AND DEMOCRATIC DECISIONS WHY ONLY RUSSIA(PUTIN) SHOULD FACE WAR CRIMES BECAUSE USA ONLY KNOWS HOW TO BLAME OTHERS AND MAKE THE PROFITS.
Great decision to exit Russia. This is what ESG means.
It is great for Goldman's to set this stance, the other Banks should follow, without Banking Solutions, this warmongering will be forced to stop. There is no space in Civilised Democracies, for Murdering of Women and Children being orchestrated by any Army, inflicted by a neighbour. The Civilised World must Unite against this Aggression Now!
Thank you 🙏🏻
