评分哎,抚卷轻叹啊。GS是一个王朝。
查尔斯·埃利斯,他在自己创立的Greenwich Associate国际咨询事务所中担任了30年的董事合伙人并且为世界上几乎所有的一流金融服务机构提供过咨询服务。他曾是耶鲁大学投资委员会主席和受托人、罗伯特伍德约翰逊基金会受托人、领航投资的董事、怀特黑德生物化学研究院的主席,并为亚洲、欧洲和北美的主要机构提供投资咨询服务。他著有14本著作,包括:在《失败者游戏中取胜》和《乔威尔逊传记》。
The jury is still out on what the future of Goldman Sachs will look like, but no one can argue that the 139 year old firm has been (and, if Warren Buffett has his way, will be) the dominant investment banker and dealer on Wall Street. What does Buffett see that we on the outside do not? Its all about the people.
Charles D. Ellis has written a landmark book that couldnt come at a better time. The Partnership: The Making of Goldman Sachs is the colorful and fascinating story of Goldmans rise to power through many life-threatening changes in markets, competition, and regulation. It tells the personal history of the men and women who built the worlds leading financial powerhouse from a firm that was disgraced and nearly destroyed in 1929, limped along as a break-even operation through the Depression and WWII, and, with only one special service and one improbable banker, began the rise that, in half a century, took Goldman Sachs to global leadership.
A conversation with Charles Ellis:
* Is Goldman Sachs really a lot better than other firms at managing risk?
The big difference is in the cumulative power of many small details. The difference in the speed, accuracy, and extent of communication inside the firm; the difference in intensity, focus, and disciplined toughness of the men and women hand selected to work there and real difference in recruiting, training, and compensation. All add up to a decisive advantage in management. Leaders and co-leaders manage Goldmans many business units with rigor and drive; risk management is the envy of other banks; and coordination is powerful across business units and markets around the world.
As every Olympic athlete knows, such small differences make all the difference between gold, silver or bronze or no medal at all. In the current, very difficult test, Goldman Sachs has come in 1st again.
* Goldman Sachs is often described as the best managed Wall Street firm. Is that true?
Yes, it is true. Goldman Sachs is the best managed Wall Street firm and the best led. Management is why Goldman Sachs is consistently rated the best firm to work for and gets top ratings from clients all over the world. Superior management is why the firm earns more profit, develops more effective people, has made itself the market leader in the U.S., U.K, Germany, France, China, Japan, and in most major lines of banking business. No other firm comes close.
One of the things you will learn in The Partnership is just how Goldman succeeded in making themselves different from any other Wall Street firm. They learned early on that in order to survive, they had to not only make money, but create a culture that was universal, that demanded absolutely loyalty and, most importantly, act as one organism.
* Why does Goldman Sachs put so much weight on its culture?
Goldman Sachs culture works. In the complex, fast-changing, global, 24/7 securities business almost all the important decisions are made in highly specific and complex settings under great time pressure. These decisions cannot be made by headquarters and they cannot be deferred. They must be made locally by local market and business experts thousands of times every day.
Rules wont work. If rules were written for every type of decision in all those different businesses in all the worlds different markets in all the different cultures, the resulting Rule Book would be far too large and complex to read or use.
Culture its way of working is the universal stem cell that enables Goldman Sachs to operate so forcefully in so many different national markets and in so many different businesses.
* With all its different business activities all over the world, doesnt Goldman Sachs have problems with conflicts of interest?
Yes! The firm certainly has many, many conflicts of interest. While it could take a defensive approach and try to avoid or minimize those risks of conflicts, the firm believes the more realistic and effective approach is to recognize those risks, be candid about them with clients and counterparties, and actively manage the conflicts. The firm strives to deal with each of them in such thoughtful and effective ways that clients and customers will know Goldman Sachs can be trusted to manage conflicts better than any other firm.
This is, of course, an assumption of enormous responsibility particularly on the scale on which Goldman Sachs operates so it raises the obvious next question: Who will watch the watcher?
