Goldman Sachs is buying a Dutch investment firm for €1.6 billion ($1.9 billion) in a bid to grow its asset management business and boost the bank's prospects outside the United States.
The US investment bank revealed Thursday that it has agreed to buy NN Investment Partners, which has $355 billion in assets under management, from insurance company NN Group (NNGPF). "This transaction will bring assets under [our] supervision in Europe to over $600 billion, aligning with the firm's strategic objectives to scale its European business and extend its global reach," Goldman Sachs said in a statement.More Related News
