About Global Liquidity Management
The Global Liquidity Management (GLM) team provides money market and short duration fixed income solutions with a mission of preserving capital, providing liquidity and offering competitive yields.
Our high-quality liquidity solutions are differentiated by:
Separate and Independent Credit Analysis
Since 1981, we have extended and strengthened our focus on credit quality by leveraging capabilities within the Goldman Sachs Credit Risk Management and Advisory Group. Members of this team construct and maintain GSAM’s Money Market Credit Approved List, communicate daily with GSAM portfolio managers and review and approve all additions, deletions and/or changes to the List.
Advantage: An unbiased credit review process that helps evaluate and manage risk in all environments
A Strong Team and Proven Investment Process
Our senior portfolio managers offer an average of 14 years* industry experience, and the team has experienced historically low turnover. In addition, the investment process used to manage our 17 U.S. and multi currency ($, £, Euro, AUD and Yen) money market and short duration funds1 benefits from years of continuous evolution as well as firm wide economic and sector expertise .
Advantage: Organizational continuity and experience combined with rigorous management of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk
Fiduciary Responsibility in Serving Clients’ Interests
GSAM serves in a fiduciary role to the Goldman Sachs Mutual Funds since the Funds themselves are clients of GSAM. This fiduciary responsibility, combined with GSAM’s deep-rooted risk management and distinction between credit and portfolio management, gives clients confidence that their assets are managed with professionalism and integrity.
Advantage: Layers of independent scrutiny and quality control – plus objective checks and balances in challenging or rapidly changing risk environments
