Goldman Sachs Personal Financial Management (GSPFM) was a former division of Goldman Sachs responsible for wealth management of high-net-worth individuals.[2] It had 74 offices in the United States and managed $25 billion in assets.[1][3]

In November 2023, it was announced that Creative Planning had completed the acquisition of GSPFM.[4]

In 2021, the average customer had $1.3 million in assets managed by the division.[5] A separate division, Goldman Sachs Private Wealth Management, serves ultra high-net-worth individuals where customers have at least $10 million in investable assets.[6]
