I first heard of Goldman Sachs from their strong community work in the UK. They have a commitment to using their resources (people) to help others. Each year, a team of employees from Goldman Sachs come to work at the Scout HQ in Billericay, Essex to help maintain the building. What I hadn't appreciated was the history that you have discovered above, founded in 1869. I always imagined them to be a relatively new bank.

Well done Dan.

Wall Street: a small street in Manhattan, New York, which is in the heart of the Financial District, and considered the 'home' of the New York Stock Exchange.

The Goldman Sachs are one of the worlds largest investment banks. It was founded in 1869 and its headquartered in 85 Broad Street, NY (May be of some use :P). Goldman Sachs also have offices worldwide, in countries such as: New York, Chicago, Los Angeles,San Francisco, Frankfurt, Zurich, Paris, London, Hong Kong, Singapore, and more. Goldman Sachs are also finiancial advisors to Governments, Very large companies, and the extremely wealthy; and as of 2006, Goldman Sachs has reported earnings of $37.67 billion

Enjoy the trip,
Dan
