07:59 AM EDT, 10/08/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Goldman Sachs (GS) is preparing more than $500 million in equity awards for about 20 senior executives after the bank outperformed most peers over five years, Bloomberg reported Thursday, citing filings and people familiar with the matter. CEO David Solomon is expected to receive more than $100 million, while President John Waldron and business heads Ashok Varadhan, Dan Dees and Marc Nachmann are also among the recipients, the report said. The awards stem from a 2021 compensation program tied to Goldman's stock performance and results relative to peers, it added. The final awards will be determined when the five-year performance period ends later this month, according to Bloomberg. Goldman Sachs did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment. (Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.

Goldman Sachs' market value evaporated by several billions, with its share price down more than 22% from the year's high. Despite Q3 revenue exceeding expectations, a 41% drop in M&A activity and a slowdown in IPOs have dampened market sentiment. Analysts project a 12% revenue increase in Q4, but technical indicators suggest there is further downside risk to $783. Rumors about management transitions have also drawn attention.
