GS Special Assets Group

Does anyone have familiarity with the Special Assets Group at Goldman? It seems like there is a senior in West Palm Beach, a few professionals in NYC, and a few in London as well. The most I could find online is this description in a job posting from a while back:
“The Special Asset Group (SAG) resides within the Securities Division (FICC-Credit Trading) of Goldman Sachs and invests in corporate debt, across sectors, spanning Investment Grade, High Yield and Distressed Credit. The London SAG team consists of a Portfolio Manager, Credit Analysts and Quantitative Analysts. The analyst role focuses on investment analysis and portfolio management.”
Is this still a team at GS?

 

Based on the most helpful WSO content, the Special Assets Group (SAG) is indeed a part of Goldman Sachs. It falls under the Securities Division, specifically within FICC-Credit Trading. The team invests in corporate debt across various sectors, including Investment Grade, High Yield, and Distressed Credit. The London SAG team is composed of a Portfolio Manager, Credit Analysts, and Quantitative Analysts, with the analyst role focusing on investment analysis and portfolio management.

However, I don't have the most recent information about the current status of the team or its structure. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, I would recommend reaching out directly to Goldman Sachs or checking their official website or recent job postings.
