Goldman Sachs flies top banker to Paris in post-Brexit relocation

[pellinore]

Who needs bankers anyway? Oh, we do, as it has been our most important service export. Well, we've got farming and industry. Oh, no we don't, they were the first casualties of Brexit.

Goldman Sachs has relocated one of its top European investment bankers from London to Paris as part of a shake-up in the group’s regional structure following Brexit.

Dirk Lievens, who leads Goldman’s financial institutions group for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, moved to Paris in March to be closer to the Wall Street giant’s continental European clients, which include banks and insurers, according to the Financial Times.

Lievens has worked at Goldman for around 25 years, mostly in London. The bank confirmed his relocation.

The move comes as the latest in a series of post-Brexit relocations as Goldman and rivals like JPMorgan and Bank of America move teams from London to other European hubs, with Paris emerging as a particular favourite.

Would that be the same crooked Goldman Sachs that made some $500m by cooking the books & creating the financial deals designed to allow Greece to appear to remain within the strict 'Maastricht' rules for eurozone membership by disguising the extent of the country's outstanding debts? 🤔

Who actually needs "those" type of bankers anyway. Oh, we don't. 🤦👇👇👇👇
