HYDERABAD: American multinational banking and financial powerhouse Goldman Sachs announced expansion of its operations in Hyderabad.

At present, the Goldman Sachs Hyderabad office operates with 1,000 employees. According to their latest expansion plan, the company will inaugurate its new eight-floor office with 2,000 professionals, increasing their total employees number to 3,000 in Hyderabad. This new office will emerge as a center of excellence for consumer banking services, business analytics, and platform engineering.  IT will also focus on emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning.

He expressed happiness over Goldman Sachs’ creating employment opportunities for thousands of professionals in the region.  Top firms such as MassMutual, HSBC, State Street, Berkadia, Wells Fargo, JP Morgan Chase, and Invesco have already established their presence in the city.
