History

Goldman Sachs Personal Financial Management was founded in 2005, under the name United Capital, as a national network of independent advisory firms.[4] The company was initially founded, financed and developed by Joe Duran and his business colleagues. By 2010, United Capital had over 150 employees and $30 million in revenue.[5] By 2008, following several acquisitions of investment advisory firms such as Maul Capital Management, Integrated Financial Management, and Trevethan Capital Partners, United Capital was operating with 47 offices and 350 employees.[6][7] The company made its largest acquisition in 2012 when it acquired Zirkin, a $1.6 billion firm that was previously part of M&T Bank.[8]

United Capital was acquired by Goldman Sachs on May 16, 2019 for $750 million and the name of the division was subsequently rebranded as Goldman Sachs Personal Financial Management on January 30, 2020.[9][10]

gollark: Current Discord culture does not really care.
gollark: I'm glad the staff team has realized the supremacy of Rust over all other languages.
gollark: I think it would make more sense and be less complex if users actually had to send transactions to transfer money, instead of just letting things make them for them and hoping the things can be trusted.
gollark: That also seems bad.
gollark: Oh, and is there a reason for the system where to pay for things online with a credit card, you have to provide information which allows whoever you give it to to make arbitrary transactions (as long as nobody flags it as fraud or something?).
