Timothy J. Keating, Robert S. Spalding III, Admiral Timothy Keating, Brigadier General Robert S. Spalding III, Norman Nye, Tim Keating, Rob Spalding
Hosted by Goldman Sachs's Norman Nye on April 15, 2020, Admiral Timothy Keating and Brigadier General Rob Spalding assessed how the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated U.S.-China geopolitical rivalry, particularly regarding Taiwan, supply chain decoupling, and 5G surveillance infrastructure. The experts concluded that the crisis would permanently shift global alignment toward a "democratic bloc" prioritizing national security over economic integration, forcing a reshoring of critical industries and tighter restrictions on Chinese technology. They further warned that economic strains could provoke China to employ gray zone tactics while the United States pivots toward strengthening alliances in the Indo-Pacific, India, and Latin America.

Financial Roadmap - Goldman Sachs 2020 Investor Day
Goldman Sachs has outlined a three-year strategic plan targeting a Return on Equity exceeding 13% and an efficiency ratio of 60% by driving revenue growth, reducing the cost of funds, and implementing a $1.3 billion expense initiative. The firm aims to lower its funding costs by diversifying liabilities to reach a 50% deposit mix and will allocate capital toward high-return opportunities while returning excess value to shareholders through flexible buybacks and dividends. Under this framework, the Global Markets segment seeks to lift its ROE to 10% while new consumer and transaction banking initiatives are projected to reach break-even status within the medium-term horizon.
